...long speeches in the Senate on the need for aviation development, for more airports. He has a bill pending to enlarge the Department of Commerce's powers in investigating civil air accidents. He is the Senate's most airminded Senator, might well be rated its aeronautical expert. His zeal for a high tariff combined with his professed ignorance of tariff matters led to his disastrous use of Charles L. Eyanson, assistant to the president of the Connecticut Manufacturers Association (TIME, Oct. 28). Eyanson was sent to his office to tell him what Connecticut manufacturers wanted...
...cultural education. He pointed out that "telescoping" of elementary courses and those of a professional character is avoided at Harvard as much as possible. In describing the administrative system employed in the University he drew the analogy of judge and jury.

As Architect Albert Kahn, of Detroit, and Engineer Hugh Lincoln Cooper, of New York, hire out their expert services to the Soviet, so Economist Dewey puts his expert advice at the disposal of the Polish Treasury. It was he who was behind the recent deal by which Standard Steel Car Corp. underwrote $20,000,000 worth of Polish State Railways Bonds for Lilpop, Rau & Loewenstein, Polish car builders...
...referring to this picture, Dr. Raimond Von Marle, an art-expert, writes in the October issue of "International Studio"; "I hesitated for a long time before I finally came to the conclusion that the picture of the "Saviour with the Crown of Thorns" is a work of Botticelli, himself. It is a rather delicate matter to include a new work among the productions of a painter of such fame as Botticelli. The reader however should keep in mind that this is not supposed to be one of the master's great and imposing productions but a modest work the like...
