Salengro, Socialism & Spain. The Radical French "stayin" strikes of last summer were put down by virile M. Salengro when they were becoming a national menace (TIME, June 8 et seq.) and this week, as nervous Premier Blum temporarily took charge of the Ministry of Interior himself, fresh stayin strikes erupted. Communist Leader Maurice Thorez turned what was to have been a Paris mass meeting of mourning for Suicide Salengro into a howling mob which screamed, "Cannon for Spain!" and "Down with Fascism!" at Defense Minister Edouard Daladier.

Old stuff to most educators are the perennial kicks against it by boys who think either that fighting is wrong or drilling is a bore (TIME, April 6 et ante). New stuff, however, was the action Oregon's adults took last week to end the particularly loud squawks against R.O.T.C. which students in two state colleges have been raising for years.
