...same world stage about the same time. In The House of Rothschild (in which Wellington was impersonated by C. Aubrey Smith), Actor Arliss suggested to cinema audiences that Waterloo was a minor crisis in the affairs of a Jewish financier. In The Iron Duke, though Rothschild does not appear at all, Arliss' invariable mannerisms are so reminiscent that it seems strange when he orders his cavalry to charge instead of trying to arrange a merger. Whatever the effect of The Iron Duke may be on Mr. Arliss' ambitions for knighthood, it is likely to be greater than...
...completely missed by U. S. newsreels. Therefore to the tiny fishing village of Okitsu went the newscameras of The March of Time, with the result that shots of Prince Saionji, guarded night & day by 40 soldiers, sitting on his flower-bordered porch reading the newspapers, are the first to appear on any U. S. screen. Also new to most U. S. eyes are old shots dug out of Japanese film libraries of Prince Saionji coming & going between his Tokyo home and the Imperial Palace. These and older scenes-Versailles (1919). Washington (1922), Manchuria (1932)-together with new exclusive views...
...Long before Dr. Urey was awarded the Nobel Prize for his discovery (TIME, Nov. 26), experimenters were finding that heavy water did strange things to small animals and plants.

...months ago the venerable Atlantic Monthly inaugurated a new advertising policy by which big companies could purchase 20 pages in the back of the magazine for $10,000, using eight pages to print stories about themselves and the other twelve for display advertising. Last month the first story to appear was an account of General Motors by Arthur Pound, whose chief point apparently was that General Motors is in business to stay. Last week President Alfred Sloan Jr. confirmed the fact by announcing earnings of $94,769,000 for 1934 as against $83,213,000 for 1933. World sales...
...bench in front of the New York Public Library (the unemployed having apparently gone to Florida for their winter vacation). The young Lord leaves, the young lady learns of his position and gets an unwanted revenge when her newspaper friend prints the story in slightly reversed form, making it appear that the lady has deserted the lord instead of vice-versa. She becomes notorious as the "No Girl" and while drowning her sorrow is persuaded to cash in on her fame by appearing at a night club. She does and her casual manner makes her a sensation. After another crack...
