BRITISH FILM 1 SHOWN AT REGENT FOR FIRST TIME "High Treason" is in Every Way A Remarkable Picture The Regent Theatre was filled at both showings last night of the Brit- ish super-flm, "High "Treason," shown for the first time in a Cane adian Theatre, and the audiences went away (thrilled By what was a stirring spettacle and a picture long to be remembered, The theme Of the picture, 'peace as opposed to war, was portrayed in a manner which will make, the film a remarkable con- tribution to the cause it upholds, for it gives a vivid representation of what might be expected in wars of the future. Three incidents stand out in par. ticular, these being the bombing df New Yark with explosive and gas projectiles from the air, the wreck- ing of the channel tunnél between England and France while a train was speeding through i and 'the bombing of the Peace Building in London; These spectacles were shown with a realism that was convincing, and gave a vivid idea of 'what might be expected in wars of the future. 'The picture is produced as of the year 194), when modern inventions have made remarkable progress, and these in themselves make the pice ture interesting, The. changes in styles, the advarces in 'television, and (the extensive use of electrical" devi. ges help to give the picture a touch of novelty that attracts attention,' The theme of the film, the preven- tion of what would have been a dis- astraus war by the efforts of the pre. sideht of the world league of peace, brings in an appealing romance and a «dramatic interest that are sustaine ed to the last scene, t has been stated that this film an been strongly criticized in the United States as being anti-American propaganda. There is nothing in the ents however, to suggest this. Vhatever propaganda there may be | attached to it is all directed in the interests of world peace, and it is presented go dramatically that it makes the picture an' outstanding production, One feature Which is noteworthy is the excellence of the sound and talk- ing effects, The English voices are refreshing, with the enunciation of every actor and actress remarkably clear and distinct. If dll British rived are of the same standard as this one, then Canadian y udiences will not be slow in demanding more 'of them. Vegetable Man Has Hard Ti ime Bucking March Wind Today's. sunshine seemed welcome after yesterday's storming and snowing, Wednesdny was a typlenl March day when one took inte account the high wind wich raced through local streets, howled around corners and threatened fo Itt 'men's hats high above thelr heads and send them bowling, A Mareh wind can perform many queer 'tricks and occasion annoy. ance and embarrassment, This was demonstrated recently when vegetable peddlier attempted to as play his wires in 4 toca) home, As the!peddier strode up to the front door of the house he was met by 8 dog and he immediately turned and best a retreat.'
