"HOOEY, DR GOEBBELS"
After travelling to New Zealand at the rate of more than 1,000 miles _ a day, a topical news reel of singular interest will he shown locally on Friday. This is ‘ London’s Reply to German Claims,’ a pictorial record of a tour of London, made by a neutral observer on August 20, just after German broadcasts had asserted that the city was a mass of ruins and that the morale of the people was seriously upset. The film was posted in London
on September 5, and travelled by air mail across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, Packed in two wooden boxes, it carried £4B 4s in postage stamps. The film presents scones of destruction such as one might expect to see after hearing the German news, and then the commentator makes his remark, “ Hooey, Dr Gocbbcls,” and proceeds to show what London actnallv looked like on this date.
