Typical of hundreds of other cases, this film shows just how the black market operates in food-stuffs and how it is defeated by cooperation of the public with OPA local law-enforcement officials. Film contains an object lesson and a plea for public support of OPA in its effort to stamp out black marketing and thus keep down the cost of living. Subject is especially suitable for women's groups and adult audiences. Black Marketing screens for 1 1 minutes. ► Wartime Nutrition shows some of findings of Britain and those of American scientists and nutritionists. Although people of the United States have not had their food supplies bombed, burned and torpedoed, many are undernourished— starving, not for lack of food, but because of poor eating habits. Millions of people today eat one or more meals in restaurants. Many of these meals are badly balanced, nutritively deficient. The film, Wartime Nutrition, focus upon those deficiencies and their remedy. Has incidental value for general audiences. Screens for 10 minutes. ► Report From Russia shows the strength of the Soviet — not the guns and tanks and planes, important as they are, but the people of Russia — 19,000,000 women planting and harvesting crops; 5,000,000 women in industry; 5,000,000 children on farms. This subject pictures Russia's secret weapon — the strength and fortitude of the Russian people. This is one of several OWI films designed to show people of other United Nations and encourage a better understanding of the courage and resourcefulness of our Allies. Produced by the Bureau of Motion Pictures, Office of War information, subject runs 285 feet and screens for 8 minutes. ► Jap Zero, produced by the Army Air Forces as a training film in aircraft identification, focuses upon the necessity for American pilots recognizing without hesitation and without error a P-40 and Jap Zero. Difference between the two planes are shown, distinguishing characteristics of each are illustrated, then the audience tests its knowledge through the eyes of an American pilot in the Southwest Pacific. On a patrol flight, he sights another plane: a P-40 or a Zero? Flustered, he decides and fires — and fortunately misses. The plane is an American P-40. With calmer observation, later he gets a Zero. Jap Zero screens for 20 minutes.
