Abstract
AN interesting film dealing with tinplate and canning, produced in France under the title “Magie du Fer-Blanc”, was shown for the first time in England on December 2 at the Polytechnic Extension, Little Tichfield Street, London, W.1. The display took place under the auspices of the International Tin Research and Development Council, and Sir John Campbell, chairman of the Internation Tin Committee, introduced to the audience M. Peissi, director of l'Office Technique pour Utilisation de l'Acier, by whom the film had been produced. Various phases in the production of tinplate, the fabrication of containers and the canning of food were depicted. At present the film has French subtitles, but we understand that it is probable that an English accompaniment will be arranged and the film exhibited publicly in Great Britain.
