...Rhine!" Action last week was possible largely because Mr. Baldwin took such fright at Germany's increasing air power that he proclaimed last year, "The Rhine-that is where our frontier lies!" (TIME, Aug. 13). The scare thus started has since been etched deep into the British mind. The nation and the Cabinet were ripe last week for an elaborate dossier placed by M. Laval impressively upon the big oak table at No. 10 Downing St. This dossier of the French Secret Service and General Staff purported to reveal: 1) just how grossly Adolf Hitler has violated the Treaty...
...rest of the bill is names--Baker, Beetle, Bottle--and they all disappoint. Merely seeing Bottle in a box destroys a beautiful illusion of a deep-dyed villain; also his voice has lost its rasping note.

This reviewer may never again appreciate the trio, even on the air, which is a loss to the ham industry.

After 61 years the San Francisco Art Museum opened with 14 exhibition galleries and a handsome lady director brought on from Cincinnati...
...absurd demand that a cinema which purports to treat a historical theme should be judged according to the fidelity with which it cleaves to the factual skeleton of the past has long been abandoned. When there is no real assurance that deep and erudite works of scholarship give the true spirit of a given period, surely it is unreasonable to expect that celluloidal pageants should feel constrained to do so. "The Iron Duke," although it may wander away from the truth, unwinds a fascinating yarn; its costumes are authentic, thanks to Gaumont, consistently English. The Duchess of Richmond gives...
