...avoid spreading excessive cheer, Commerce-Labor pointed out that the silver cloud had a grey lining. Much of the May job increase resulted from a surge of hirings for construction projects that had been delayed by early spring's foul weather; employment in manufacturing, the economy's soft spot, actually declined again in May. And Capitol Hill's bearish Joint Economic Committee predicted last week that the economy will not get back its full pre-recession robustness until mid-1959 at the earliest, and possibly not until late...

Van Druten varies his comedy by introducing several characters who are affected by the growing Nazi power, then a cloud no bigger than a man's fist. As an earnest, worried Jewish girl, Louise Bell is excellent, though no better than Roger Klein as her suitor. Lilian Aylward plays a warm, tolerant, ignorant old landlady who for all her kindliness is a virulent anti-Semite. She is immense in every sense of the word...
