Although M. G. M. added such embellishments as a misplaced fashion show to the Clare Boothe play that ran 19 months on Broadway in 1936-38,* The Women, like its original, is a mordant, mature description of the social decay of one corner of the U. S. middle classes. Prevented by the nature of the cast from publicizing the picture with a studio romance, M. G.

Last week, with the bank account considerably more than $20, Clare Bunch lifted his nose from...
...year ago, such avowed foes of the Act as Nebraska's Senator Edward R. Burke, Michigan's Representative Clare Hoffman, the National Association of Manufacturers could get nowhere toward amendment. Since then A. F. of L.'s leadership has plumped for change. Now Clare Hoffman approvingly quotes A. F. of L. to the considerable embarrassment of Bill Green, who strenuously opposes even more drastic alterations proposed by Hoffman, Burke, N. A. M., the U. S. Chamber of Commerce. John Lewis' C. I. O. resists any change, on the ground that once the Wagner Act is opened...
