...planning to fight a war by itself. I would like to correct that impression. . . We must realize that in common with the mobilization of the air force in this area, the ground arms of the Army would also be assembling, prepared to take the major role in repelling the actual landing forces. ... I want to ask that you do not accuse us of trying to win a war alone...
That DC-4 may find the actual ceiling of air traffic's enormous room was suggested fortnight ago by Arthur E. Raymond, Douglas' vice president in charge of engineering. He pointed out to the Chamber of Commerce in Washington that there are three good reasons why transcontinental transport planes will never have to fly much higher: 1) the higher they fly, the more oxygen and pressure equipment is necessary, which subtracts from potential payload (passengers and freight); 2) the overwhelming majority of U. S. passenger business is in short hauls, for which "substratosphere" flight is useless, since...
...Fight for Peace (Warwick) is a bitter, angry omnibus of war, given point & purpose by a tart narrative from the pen of author Hendrik Willem Van Loon. These patched-fogether newsreel shots show actual scenes from modern war: liquid fire spraying Ethiopia; China's cities, roadsides and streams piled with stinking dead; anguished Spanish mothers digging their mangled children from smoking ruins, as big, black bombers wheel off overhead...
...Fogg workshop are two painted panels which reproduce the mosaic portrait of the emperor Constantinus Monomachos. These are the first two experiments. In the first the actual pattern of the cubes was transferred from a full six photographic print to a prepared panel of gesso. The form of each cube was then laboriously incised into the gesso and painted in tempera. The second experiment was made directly on a photostat. The form of each cube in this case was raised with gesso, somewhat in the manner of the raised letters in a medieval manuscript, and them painted with glue tempera...
...great power today has a genuine "balanced budget" or equality of actual income and actual expenditure, and none has kept its national debt within prudent bounds. Comparatively, British Government finances make a good showing for the budget period 1938-39. National debt: $40,130,635,000-of which Britain owes the U. S. today $4,487,670,000. Expenditures: $4,721,990,000-an increase from last year of $407,500,000. Estimated surplus: $1,760,000-obtained by covering the actual deficit not shown in the Budget with a loan of $450,000,000 earmarked for Rearmament. Total expenditure...
