“LONDON CAN TAKE IT" IS THE TITLE

OF A REALISTIC FILM DEPICTING THE HUSBAND

WHICH ARRIVED YESTERDAY IN AMERICA NOT DEAD

Night after night three young cameramen braved death to take these thrilling pictures of the British capital by night as Nazi bomb ers were droning overhead.

The

American commentator, Mr. Quentin Reynolds, provides

in laconic, drily humourous back- 111- ground to the film which cludes shots of anti-aircraft guns genrchlights renching in action.

As the commentator romarks, "these are not Hollywood sound effects but the real thing."

The film concludes with pictures of British bombers on their way "CRRS" to Berlin to drop their

The film will be distributed immediately in the United States, Latin America and Canada and doubtless afterwords in the Bri- tish Empire and the rest of the world.-Reuter.

IN AN EMERGENCY

Further cogitation by the Ministry of Information has re- suited in a decision to abandon its scheme to employ "sensible people on senseless duties. This concession to popular feeling co- incides with the Ministry's other withdrawals in regard to the "silent column" and the imposi- tion of further censorship re- strictions on newspapers.

The "sensible people" scheme weeks came into operation six ago They had-been-selected-in localities throughout the country for a remarkable purpose. If in any grave emergency communi- cations went wrong they were to maintain morale, by "spreading news, if necessary by word

'mouth.

The Ministry has at last realis- ed how easily news can be dis- torted by the means. The "sen- aible people" are not to be ask- ed now to perform any such duty. A brand new plan has taken the place of the original method. -

THAILAND'S CLAIMS REJECTED

A flat refusal to consider any territori- al claims put forward by Thailand is con- tained in an official statement issued last night in Vichy.

At the same time, the assurance is given that the Vichy Gov- ernment is ready to immediately ratify the non-aggression

pact.-Reuter.
