...round-the-world trip to forget that the last of his five had set the all-time Dutch low by lasting exactly two days and seven hours. Last June Calvinist Dr. Colijn was compelled to resign when his old-fashioned financial and social policies split the coalition between his Anti-Revolutionary Party and the progressive Catholics. After a month of Cabinet stasis Queen Wilhelmina's Favorite was back again with a museum collection of Ministers. The Catholics and Socialists promptly sent them back to gather more dust...

Last week Dr. D. J. de Geer, leader of the Christian Historical Party, smaller but a shade less conservative than the Anti-Revolutionaries, formed a new Cabinet.

Four concerts were to be broadcast, and Toscanini's son-in-law, Vladimir Horowitz, able pianist...
...most Congressmen the pleasure of putting thumb to nose and waving all four fingers in the direction of Franklin Delano Roosevelt was last week a fully satisfying occupation (see p. 12). But to Congress' thoughtful fringe (New Deal and anti-New Deal) there was a far more interesting occupation, the same occupation as that of many a businessman, trying to answer a question...
