BRITISH FILMS.

THE GREAT ZEEBRUGGE PICTURE,

There is a good deal in the cur- | rent exchanges which has to do with the cinematographic revival In Britain. Firstly, to the list of battle eples, which includes "Zeebrugge (to be shown here on Trafalgar Day) "Ypres" and "The Retreat from Mons," is to be added "The Battle of the Falk- lands." British financial inter ests are at last seeing, the possi- bilities. In film production and it is understood that this new Naval picture will cost at least £50,000. The only doubt which arises in my mind is whether the tale is late in the telling, but America sets away with Chateau Thierry

EMPIRE SHIPPING.

The London Chamber of Com-

merce has published a statement recommending the consideration of the Rulee for the Carriage of Goods by Sea at the Imperial Conference. The statement points out that since the legislation of the Rules the provisions have worked smoothly as' between shipowners and merchants. Since the passing of the British (Act traders have been anxious to" bring about uniformity throughout i the Empire in order to avoid the confusion which arises from differ- encesdn legal liability affecting not only the carriers of goods, but also the shippers, bankers, and under writers.

The Rules for the Carriage of Goods by Sea were brought into existence as an international com- pact, but the suggestion for doyls- ing rules of sea carriage was originally contained in a report of tht Infperial Shipping Committee. Australia and Canada have passed similar Acts to the British Act but foreign countries have, with only a single exception, completely neg lected their bargain. Complete uniformity within the Empire would, of course, strengthen the hand of the Government in making representations to foreign Powers, and thus help to bring about not only improved conditions of car- ringe but also fairer conditions of foreign shipowners. competition between British and
