NURSE CAVELL FILM
FOREIGN SECRETARY’S ATTITUDE PRESS APPROVAL (British Official News.) Proso Association—By Wireless—Copyright RUGBY, February 11. (Received February 13, at noon). Discussion regarding the cinematograph flint entitled 1 Dawn ’ continues in practically all the newspapers, which strongly approve of the line taken by the Foreign Secretary, Sir Austen Chamberlain. The ‘ Daily News ’ declares that no delicacy of treatment can remove a film centred on Nurse Cavcll’s death from the class of war films, “ and in defining that conviction so finely and so decisively Sir Austen has performed a public service.” The ‘Manchester Guardian,’ in welcoming Sir Austen Chamberlain’s letter, says; “He expresses with admirable strength and simplicity the feelings of all who care for better understanding between the nations. However carefully the story of Nurse Cavell’s sacrifice he told it cannot, in our time, be appropriate fare for the screen.”
