CHANGES MADE IN | Roosevelt Gets

Anti-Nazi Film

NEW YORK, July 16 (U.P.) — |

Roosevelt, the President's son, has acquired distribution rights to the British anti-Naazi film, "Pastor Hall,” and his mother, Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, will narrate a prologue explaining why the picture is being shown in America, it was disclosed today.

Mr. Roosevelt acquired the rights after a private showing of the film had impressed him. He arranged a screening for Mrs, Roosevelt, but offered at once to assist in its presentation, without compensation. The film is patterned after the case of the Rev. Martin Niemoeller, German pastor, who was interned in a concentration camp after expressing from the pulpit his opposition to certain Nazi polfeies, particularly the treatment of Jews. The story is based on an unproduced play by the late German dramatist Ernst Toller. The prologue which Mrs. Roosevelt will narrate will be written by Robert Sherwood, the dra-

James

Its premier showing probably will be in New York, early next month.

They expect to spend on their war effort two million dollars a day in the next 12 months, and will probably go over that. To finance it they will use one dollar in every five of the people's income, and with the other money the Dominion, its provinces and fts! cities, they may take twe dollars in every five, The ceiling of personal income is now about $60,000 in Quebee, about $40,000 on the prairies. Even so, the Canadians will have a deficit, and it will about equal New York's share of the American deficit, though the United States is not officially at war, Feelings of Canadians are a mingling of pride over what they are accomplishing and of chagrin that they have not done more, considersing the delays during the time the war was quiet,

Stands on Own Feet Now

Since the invasion of the Netherlands, and especially since the col=lapse of France, the Dominion has had to stand on its own feet, The 4000 to 5000 aircraft engines it was to get irom England it had to arrange for in the United States. The air training scheme has been | completely revised, what with the other dominions out also. The pro=duction end of it is being telescoped | from two years into one, The 80 air fields are being lald out for Canadians only. | In many other ways Canada 15 [losing the assistance upon which she relied in England, and 1s looking to the great neighbor on the south to replace some of it, At the same time England tinues to finance as much of Canadian productive capacity as she can engage, for shell work chiefly and for some Hurricane ————————ass. | SOS, So far as the public Knows, ho steps are being taken for a military alliance with the United States, which begins to be alluded to as “our non-belligerent ally.” However if such an alliance developed rapidly, it is probably the military preliminaries would be found to {have been pretty well explored | beforehand,

Plane Production Bright Spot

Canada's production of planes is often a topic of conversation but not in much detail. When it is |considered that the Dominion had (next to no aircraft plants when the | war started, the achievement to date | lig likely to be one of the brighter | | chapters of the war effort, In numbers, the production of | | elementary trainers is highest. No| | bombers are yet in production. | | Some second-hand ships are being | purchased in the United States| | from civilian sources and brought | | over for training. Sadder is the tank story. C. D. Howe, minister of munitions, pub- | licly blamed the British for not | releasing specifications. Privately, it is sald British manufacturers | wanted to hang on to their produc[tion and profits. | Just what purpose the 300 heavy tanks are to serve is not disclosed, | but one wonders what war of move[ment they could be intended for. | Indeed, the shape of European | affairs at the moment leads one to | wonder whether the Dominion pro- | gram is not again being recast, The | feeling has bene growing that most lof the infantry will remain in Canada, only flyers going to England.
