...call attention to an error in the title below the picture on p. 14, TIME, Nov. 25? It should read "Theodore Roosevelt and Friends," omitting "Kaiser Wilhelm," for he was not there. This picture was taken early in the morning, May 10, 1910, at the exit of the private waiting room of one of Berlin's railroad stations (Stettiner Bahnhof, I think), while the Colonel and members of the American Embassy there to receive him waited for their conveyances to come up. The crowd outside was cheering. I recall this occasion very distinctly and even more distinctly the actual...
Police searched the Dane house. It was a residential fortress. Its arsenal contained two machine guns, numerous rifles, automatics, tear gas bombs, bottles of nitroglycerin. A trapdoor under a rug led to a hidden room with an emergency exit. In a closet were found bonds worth $319,850, part of which were identified as loot from a recent Jefferson, Wis., bank robbery.

The figure was James Francis Burke, general counsel of Republican National Committee. What balked the photographers was that the Burke leave-taking of President Hoover's inner political household was not a formal, visible occurrence but a gradual fading-out process, like Alice's Cheshire cat, "beginning with the end of the tail and ending with the grin that remained some time after the rest...
Undaunted by pooling bankers, the big and now successful Bears made Monday, Oct. 28, a day of fresh disaster. Over the weekend many an investor had fully realized the necessity for an immediate exit from the market. Thus the session, opening with an accumulation of selling orders, both amateur and professional, was hopeless from the start. By noon more than 3,500,000 shares had been sold in what was obviously a panic-situation. Again bankers met, but issued no statement, hardly retarded the decline. Again Broker Whitney haunted Post No. 2, but at this time U. S. Steel broke...
