Last week the arrest of four men in Albany, N. Y. revealed that this sort of itinerant dentistry is still going on, despite the fact that 59,000 U. S. graduate dentists have offices which practically any patient can reach. If the patient is too ill to travel or, like President Roosevelt, very important, the dentists may go to him.* But this is considered extraordinary dental practice. Nonetheless, there are no laws to prevent licensed dentists who cannot gather the $3,000 necessary to equip a regular office, from putting their equipment in satchels, packs or motor trailers, so long...

Next day in London the Laborite Daily Herald enthusiastically told His Majesty he had written "a letter which may alter world history!"

He, a Jew, had dared the South's "boll weevil bigots," "creatures whose...

Story of Montague's arrest contrasted sharply with reports of all his previous Hollywood activities. Shy no longer, he last week posed for photographers as often as they wanted, even let them photograph his hands to show how he held a golf club in his celebrated fingers. Asked how he had succeeded in Hollywood he answered: "I let the other guy's girl alone." Still amiable, he discussed the holdup: "I got into a jam when I was a wild young kid. . . . I'm glad it's over. I had intended going East and clearing this...

...that remained about John Montague last week were where his money came from and what would happen to him next. Montague last week refused to clear up the first. Answer to the second will depend on whether or not he avoids being extradited to New York. Day after his arrest last week, Montague was out on $10,000 bail, with Cinemactors Hardy, Crosby and Guy Kibbee named as references on his bond. His attorney, Jerry Giesler, asked Governor Frank F. Merriam for a hearing which was scheduled for July...
