This young man who is Foreign Minister of the Republic of Latvia has the clean-cut mien of an Arrow-Collar illustration. Latvia is just about as remote from Japan, geographically and in every other respect, as possible, and this fact in Geneva became important recently. The Dutch suddenly realized that their delegate was slated to be chairman of a League committee which must examine the aggressions of Japan, and, since The Netherlands East Indies are within easy striking distance of the Japanese Navy, the risk of heading such a committee was deemed too great for Queen Wilhelmina...
...previous week and year, whom he supports, whether anyone else in his family is unemployed. Franklin Roosevelt is to give a "fireside" broadcast urging all unemployed to fill out cards. The Post Office Department - whose James Aloysius Farley may by that time have resigned to head Fierce-Arrow Motor Car Co.-will return the cards to Washington, to be sorted by census bureau clerks. Mr. Biggers' only paid aids will be a staff of six clerks in his Department of Commerce office. Last date for mailing back cards will be Nov. 20. Preliminary results will be ready...

Hoogerhyde's proficiency with a bow & arrow really started in 1929 when he decided his form was bad. He shot 1,000 arrows a day for six months while slowly changing his arrow "anchor" grip from just behind his ear to under his jaw. Last week Hoogerhyde's rivals on the firing line were archers like Dr. Robert P. Elmer, the Wayne...
...second seaport and seventh city in Spain, as a great Italian victory and complete revenge for the rout at Guadalajara, but in Bilbao itself Rightist General José Fidel Davila, knowing the growing unpopularity of all foreign troops with Spaniards of either side, was careful to keep the Black Arrow Italian division well in the background. It was the red berets of the Carlist Royalist militia that first appeared in the streets, patrolled the city...
