It shows the duties of the 'Bobbies' in peace time and then shows their new duties as a result of the war. This is not only a good film in classes studying con- temporary history but also a good char- acter-training film as it shows the need of cooperation and coordination. The humor in it adds to its interest. It is recommended for all classes, par- ticularly civics classes studying the pro- tection of the community."

Actual scenes in Washington, our Nation- al Capitol, giving a clear mental picture of the magnitude of the business of gov- ernment. This film not only portrays his- torical background and the operation of our national government, but also treats its basic philosophy and the devices by which our forefathers sought to maintain order in government while preserving per- sonal liberty. In short, this is a timely film packed with information and inspira- tion. This subject can be used in every U.S. History or Government Course, as well as for assembly and patriotic occa- sions." South Carolina "This film gives a good visualization of how our government is set up and how it is supposed to run. The animated ma- terial gives graphically what is sometimes very difficult to give in mere words. A good film for junior high, senior high civics courses." Robert A.

The film then goes on to show the ma- noeuvres in .some detail with the emphasis on the "wheels" of the army—the trucks for carrying troops, army mules, supplies; the mechanized fighting units; the motor kitchens.
