WAR PICTURES
FEW FROM GREAT BRITAIN NONE FROM FRANCE COMPLAINTS IN UNITED STATES. PROPAGANDA ASPECT STRESSED. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. NEW YORK, September 14. Anglo-American circles are seriously disturbed by the failure of British war pictures to reach America, ostensibly on account of the censorship. A delegation of leading Press picture agency heads visited the British Ambassador, Lord Lothian, and stressed that eight German war photos had been wirelessed directly from Berlin to New York—pictures Which did not do Germany any harm —against one British picture. The delegation declared that Britain certainly was losing out in the way of the propaganda situation. In relation to France the position is even more acute, as not a single picture agency in America has received one war photo from France since the conflict began. It is learned that Lord Lothian informed an Anglo-American quarter that he had taken the matter up with Whitehall.
