...Papen's Dream. Exceedingly ingenious and in the trickiest tradition of European diplomacy, the MacDonald-Herriot formula appeared to settle everything while actually settling nothing. It fitted the U. S. State Department's demand that Europe must reach a final settlement of Reparations without reference to War Debts, yet if the next U. S. President and Congress prove reluctant to cancel all or part of what Europe owes, the Allies or any one of them can regain a completely free hand, merely by failing to ratify the MacDonald-Herriot formula...

...Rosie and Maidie Huggett, the farmer's daughters, who wear men's smocks and help pitch hay, are symbols of a rustic freedom to which the carefully "brought up" city girls aspire. But Selina and Moira have imaginative resources of which the envied farm girls do not dream. Out of their dolls and stuffed animals, which make up a kind of fairy conclave named "The Lodge," out of the hedgerow flowers, the old oast-houses, the picnics in Flatropers Wood there emerge, for Selina at least, glimpses of the ancient lyric dream of Albion. But for all that...
