Signer Mussolini's smooth answer was that his legionnaires, who had shed blood in the glorious Spanish campaigns, surely could not be expected to depart before they had marched down Madrid's Gran Via and Calle de Alcalá, along with 500,000 Spaniards, in a final salute to El Caudillo. And Italy could surely not be held responsible for Dictator Franco's delays. Last week the British and French began to suspect that Il Duce and El Caudillo were giving them the runaround, that Italian soldiers might remain in Spain just as long as Dictator Mussolini...
...swallowed up in the cataclysm-the Austrian ministry appointed for liquidation found the Empire had disappeared before it could map its program. With them went bureaucrats, ruling cliques, political leaders, military castes, police functionaries, armies of officeholders, diplomats, the props and supports of the ruling dynasties. Replacing them came, along with the new States, new political organizations employing new methods to realize new social theories.

In Boston next week Father Williams is to be an attending presbyter at the consecration of his predecessor, Bishop-elect Burton. At this service no vimpas will be used: the consecrator will be the Presiding Bishop of the Church, Henry' St. George Tucker, who has never worn a cope, much less a mitre...
...better known as the day of The Marathon than the anniversary of the first battle of the Revolutionary War. For parents who have to stand on a curbstone for hours so that their saucer-eyed brood may catch a glimpse of the first gaunt & gasping runner plodding along Commonwealth Avenue, and for motorists who are forced to detour all around town, the Marathon is a notorious nuisance. But for chronic gawps, students of foot racing and officials of the Boston Athletic Association (who sponsor the run), it is a great event...
