"WORLD OF PLENTY"
Sir,-If it is true that this film is not going to be shown in New Zealand, I wish to protest. As stated by your excellent film critic "G.M.," the British newspaper The Times insisted editorially that it should be shown in British theatres. Produced by the British Ministry of Information and showing the destruction of food to keep up the price, it is the type of film which audiences in this country have too often been denied the right of seeing. The wilful destruction’ of food is one cause of war, and any official information should be made available, especially by the powerful influence of the film.
P. C.
