The first anti-Mormon film, 'Victim of the Mormons' ("Mormonens Offer"), opens in Copenhagen, Denmark. The film goes into international distribution and is publicly condemned by Apostle David O. McKay at the next general conference. It is the target of the first censorship effort led by Utah governor (William Spry, LDS).
