Jews are the world's biggest consumers of onions and there are more Jews in New York City than anywhere else in the world. Therefore Manhattan is the world's onion capital. There in a slick red and white office with a deep onion aroma, at 40 Harrison St., works sleek, well-fed Benjamin Balish, 41, who bears the proud title of U. S. "Onion King."

...companion picture, "Man of Affairs", is a better than average English comedy which depends entirely upon the suave acting of George Arliss to pull it through. Despite the hammy aroma clinging to the supporting cast, Mr. Arliss turns in one of his best performances in light comedy to date. The two juveniles who play at young love are typically English, laboring under the national delusion that the best way to put your lines across is to talk as rapidly and unintelligibly as possible.

...infirm old Socialist whose spidery limbs and thin beaked nose give him the air of a flamingo. Flapping gestures complete the illusion and Premier Blum last week was also bird-like in his air of being exquisitely preened and valeted. Spotless were his pearl-grey spats. Faint was his aroma of eau de Cologne. He had just set up one of the very largest Cabinets ever formed in France, a ministry in which so many Radical Socialists and Socialists had found places (along with a self-styled "Dissident Communist") that the Cabinet had to be officially divided into seven sections...
