There may be something to Einstein's crooked light beams; but to shoot bullets around corners, through a barrel embedded in a propeller shaft revolving several thousand times per minute-Wow! Even if the barrel grooves would turn in the same direction as the propeller the velocity of the bullet would, in order to be effective, far exceed that of the propeller revolutions; so that, even if the bullet should manage to leave the propeller shaft, the accuracy of its aim would be as cockeyed as that of the New Year's soak trying to hit the keyhole...
Since Der Führer dosed the Fatherland with his anti-Jewish purge, German Jews from Scientist Einstein down to the small-town sausagemaker have been kicked around. Prime exception has been 47- year-old German Jew Arnold Bernstein, head of Arnold Bernstein Line, Red Star Line and Palestine Shipping Co. Hitler, during his four years of dictatorship, has paternally patted Mr. Bernstein's head, graciously welcomed his contributions to German trade. Loudly cheered by Nazis was Jew Bernstein for elaborately equipping "garage ships" and docks with high-speed elevators, enabling cars to be transported at big savings. Loudly...
...things stand, students of the universe use Relativity mathematics and atomists use Quantum Mechanics. Princeton's Einstein has promised to devote the rest of his life to the search for and the formulation of a Unified Field Theory which will encompass all Nature. He has laid promising foundations (TIME, July 15, 1935). Other work on the problem has been done by Britain's Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac, German Exile Max Born, France's Elie Cartan. Last week another approach was suggested by Dr. George David Birkhoff of Harvard...
...Curie-Joliot, daughter of the late great discoverer of radium, who became in 1936 one of the first three women ever to reach French Cabinet rank. Not one of these proved an outstanding success and Mme Curie-Joliot, disgusted with what she saw of politics, soon resigned. No Einstein Theory shot meteoric across Science's sky, no deathless melody, canvas or sculpture won world acclaim...
...Jewish musicians. It was easy to get, as permanent administrators of the new orchestra's trust fund, such influential Jews as Financier Israel Sieff of London, Belgian Industrialist Dannie Heineman. Palestine's Lieut. Col. Frederick Hermann Kisch. Palestine's top-notch lawyer, Solomon Horowitz. Dr. Albert Einstein took the honorary presidency of the U. S. branch of the organization...
