Now while I am with you all the way in the cases of "Oliver-Twist," "Devil in the Flesh," and "The Miracle," I think that the film you mourn goes far south of that borderline which divides mere bad taste from bigotry and race hatred.

The Conservatives have few compliments to pay the Festival because the Labor Government is behind the show. Lord Beaverbrook's newspapers snipe at the project whenever they can and already mourn for the several million pounds the exhibition is expected to lose. During the first week, the papers complained that the prices of food in the festival restaurants were prohibitively high for the working man.
