...Conservative Cabinet has hit upon a shrewd program, well calculated to catch votes, and probably destined to further the extremely basic interests of British industry and agriculture. The burden of the "rates" has not seldom been recklessly imposed by local authorities, and should properly become a matter of national concern. Finally the 1,000,000 workpeople who continue unemployed in Great Britain should be able to find many a job in the producing industries which Chancellor Churchill proposes to assist or partially subsidize.

Steel president, heads no concern; directs several of the most potent of their kind-American Banknote, Baldwin Locomotive, Bethlehem Steel, International Nickel, Mack Trucks, Montana Power. . . .

...editorial department of a U.S. newspaper, for his association with Englishmen may be presumed to have made him an unpatriotic propagandist. In education he is even more dangerous, for the young people of the U. S. are an impressionable lot. He might be given a business job if concern had no foreign trade and never touched a foreign bond. If he should become a laborer, he might poison union minds with European socialism. As a scientist he would have to be watched, for there is no telling what dastardly machines he might sell to the enemies...
