But last December the writ- ers won such a clause in nego- tiations with the Association of Motion Picture and Television Producers. The new contract prohibited billing to non-writers such as: John Ford's Stage Coach, John Ford's Film Stage Coach, A Film by John Ford-- State Coach, A Film of John Ford--State Coach.
