Sirs: If the picture of President & Secretaries Mclntyre, Early, Roosevelt on p. 13 (TIME, Jan. 18) is not identical with that of four silk hats, President Roosevelt, Mr. Mclntyre, Mr. Early and James, appearing on p. 21 (LIFE, Jan. 18), then the two are from two cameramen huddled together so closely that the difference is barely noticeable...
...parties united in stormily denouncing the British Newspaper Proprietors' Association last week. During the months and years in which the story of Mrs. Simpson grew abroad, the docile N. P.

Total cost was reported as $2,500,000. Two more superlatives: Paul Muni's nine separate makeups took two and one-half hours a day to apply...
...perched on a snow-covered bluff, looked down on a yellow sea where its business district and part of its residential district had been. There Paul Schmidt, chairman of the local Red Cross, got a lift from a passing skiff which promptly sank under him. Before a boatload of cameramen would rescue him they made him turn his profile so they could take his picture (see cut). A few miles farther down the sloshing water seemed to have no shore. In Paducah, Ky., at the mouth of the Tennessee River, the Coast Guard reported that 30% of the town...
