1-It appeals that this film was rejected, not by any demerits of the film itself, but by pre-conceived erroneous views and opinions about the Nudist movement as 4 whole.

2-This film does not contain any thing vulgar, shocking or Indecent. It was shot at a very conservative angle, to make it fully suitable to the public in general. Wherever the film ap- peared, abroad as well as in China (Nanking, Greater Shanghal, etc.). It always has enjoyed the sympathetic support by the Authorities, of edues- tlonists, the medical profession, spor- News tive associations and the wide public. There is, therefore, to fear nothing from its screening in Hongkong.
