BATTLE OF MONS
THE BRITISH FUM FRENCH PRESS CRITICISM. Pres* Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. PARIS, November 18. (Received November 19, at 9.25 a.m.) The newspapler ‘ Comedia, ’ criticising the film ‘Mofts,’ now being shown by cinemas throughout Britain, accuses the producer of exaggerating the role of the British force and minimisinig the work of the Belgian and French armies. “ Thus the caption ‘ The French having retreated left the British Army without support' is a little out of proportion when it is remembered that^ there were only 75,000 British to millions of Belgian and French. The latter are only mentioned at the beginning, when first welcoming the British, and then when the endurance of the British had given the French time to set their own army In order.”
