§ 45. Mr. WELLOCKasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the fact that the use of His Majesty's naval, military, and air forces and equipment for the production of war films is causing a large number of such films to be put on the market, and that objection is widely felt to such films as encouraging the war spirit, he will consider the advisability of limiting this practice to films the sole object of which is to procure an historical record?
§ The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (Mr. Churchill)The answer is in the negative. I do not think that the films referred to have the effect which the hon. Member suggests.
§ Mr. WELLOCKMay I inquire whether the right hon. Gentleman has been to some of the cheaper houses where the pictures are exhibited?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLNo, Sir, I regret that I have not had that opportunity.
