(Films from Britain ser.) lOmin 16-sd-$8.50; rent 50c 35- sd-f-apply 1940 BritLib 359 Jh-sh-adult "This film shows the convoy system em- ployed by the British to maintain and replenish the necessary food supplies for their people. It reveals the cooperative combination of ci- vilians, merchant marine, and navy that is used to accomplish the task successfully. The photography is unusual but the English accent of the narrator makes the picture somewhat dif- ficult to follow. The film should be especially good for auditorium programs on current events or national defense. In classroom work it should be suitable for the social studies in sec- ondary schools."
