...Welles stratagem of confining their claims to "small" U. S. interests was adopted partly to avoid charges of Imperialism, also partly to give Señior Cardenas a graceful out. But Mexico's President has no easy out. In Mexico's economic crisis he needs U. S: comfort and support. He also needs the powerful support of Mexico's left-wingers, who regard President Roosevelt's New Deal and "Good Neighbor" policy as handy shields for their radical designs. To them it still looked like a good bet that Secretary Hull would spare the rod rather...
...Governor Hugh White of Mississippi felt a sharp pain shoot through his chest one afternoon last week, followed by pain in his left arm. Specialists bedded him, treated him for severe cardiac fatigue.

Sole comfort for Metropolitan was in Justice Steuer's stipulation that agents who prefer to bargain individually may still...
Last week, although indices showed varying trends and the stockmarket wobbled on its lofty perch (see below), business could take comfort in one indicator solemnly tested by economists. According to the National Bureau of Economic Research, there are some 20 statistical series that usually call the turn;*among the best of these is inner-tube production. Motorists must replace casings when they wear out but can patch old tubes in hard times. Last week the Rubber Manufacturers' Association announced that in June a whopping 450.000 more inner tubes were produced than in May, by far the biggest monthly increase...
