Blunt Hint. Before a military court of inquiry, Dides at first stuck to his refusal to reveal his source. But after a second grilling, he revealed that he got the papers from a shady little Tunisian named André Baranès, a fellow-traveling journalist. As Dides described him, Baranes played the doubly devious game of passing government secrets to the Reds and Red secrets to Dides. Where did Baranes get the documents , he handed over to Dides?

The fancy album leaflet includes an appreciation by Essayist André Maurois...
There is a theory that art spins out of itself, century by century, in a sort of chain reaction. According to this notion, it is the world of art and not the great wide world that inspires artists. French Author-Critic André Malraux, a European cultivated to the breaking point, put that idea across in The Voices of Silence (TIME, Feb. 15).
