Offering no concrete alternative to Communism, "Since this is not [the Church's] field," Pius XI nevertheless begged for Catholic "equilibrium of truth and justice" in a passage which liberal Catholics hoped was a rap at Fascism. Since the Church now appears to get along well with Fascism of the Italian variety, the rap seemed to apply to Naziism. Three days later this was amply confirmed when the Pope dispatched to Germany a circular letter so full of dynamite that copies of it had to be delivered...

...Beneath the Skin" has received exceedingly favorable reviews in England, where it ran last year. A high spirited up-to-the-minute comedy in Gilbert and Sullivan style the projected play satirizes many phases of modern day life as typical of both here and abroad, including such things as Fascism, night clubs, and soap box oratory. The female parts will be handled by Radcliffe girls...
