MISS INDIA OR MISS FILMINDIA?
"I have a vague remembrance that during the pre-war days some agencies with ultra-modern views in some of the western countries conducted annual competitions to select the best woman and man m the country and name them as Aliss England etc. Don t yon think it would be very good it this is introduced in our country;
"I do not find any other agency better fitted for the purpose than "filmindia".
"This is sure to go a long way in encouraging beautiful bodies among our men and women and unearthing hidden beauties and athletes. It will give an impetus to the popularity of "filmindia and help film-folks find iresh faces.
"To start with a countrywide publicity be given to the competition in newspapers as well as tne Radio directing all the competitors to send copies of their latest photographs for a preliminary selection After all the 'rabbits are thus eliminated, the rest appear before the selection commutee personally at Bombay for the final selection, which may be held amidst a big and sensational gathering.
"The winners are titled 'Miss India' and 'Mr. India' and may be awarded a liberal prize by "filmindia" or by a film-tin-God. ANANTAPUR. M. Rukmani. HERE IS GRATITUDE I
"I do not often see your magazine but someone has been kind enough to send me a copy of the article entitled "Ingratitude in Excelsis" as appeared on page 13 of your April issue.
"I write this to say that I should be very pleased indeed to associate myself with any scheme whose obj.ct will he to perpetuate the memory of an old colleague and a very dear friend, the late Mr. D. C. Shah". BOMBAY. N. J. Hamilton.

"The article entitled "Ingratitude in Excelsis" in your April issue has been read with interest, and whilst noting that the criticism is directed against the film industry generally I would like to draw your attention to the fact that so far as the "National Standard" and "Sunday Standard" are concerned, the position held by Mr. D. C. Shah as Film Advertisement Representative has
been officially handed on to Shah's brother, while his nep Mr. H. L. Shah carries on in same relative position as bei viz., as contact man.
"We have lost Mr. D. C. Shs invaluable services as Film tor, but we have at least ensi that Mr. D. C. Shah's familj provided for within the scope j our powers.
