...hemorrhage was golden. Because the Chamber has voted down Cabinet after Cabinet rather than balance the budget (TIME. Oct. 30, et ante), gold was pouring out of France at the rate of 100,000,000 francs a day, in flight to London, Amsterdam, Geneva and even Berlin. The Deputies pointed to the Bank of France gold reserves of nearly 80 billion francs and contended that the drain of 100 million francs a day could continue for at least another month before becoming "dangerous."

Not the slightest proof of this ever materialized, the Nazis themselves assuming all power instead and using the Reichstag fire as an excuse for Chancellor Hitler's repressive acts (TIME, March 13 et seq.). Last week amid Firebug van der Lubbe's passionate protest, Judge Bunger suspended the trial for half an hour and the Dutchman was led below.

With the loss of Dean, Wells, Kopans and many others of their calibre, including the entire center squad, Coach Casey faces a trying task next fall. In spite of all the losses the backfield will be perhaps the least hard hit by graduation. Locke, Litman, Lane, Haley et al, will be back in full force next year. But the line situation is much more troubling. Three first string tackles, Kopans, Francisco and Rogers will be gone. To fill their places Casey has Burton and those coming up from the Freshman eleven. Even the brilliant Jayvee tackles, who looked good enough...
