That is what Sagmus said; and that is the Vagabond's way. He is too poor to go otherwise; and too rich to want to do so. Imagination is the free way. Unbounded by space its roads are endless; timeless, its speed is as the flash of ideas. And so perhaps to Rome one hour; to Greece another. A trip to the stars before noon; to the soil of the earth as quickly. Nor will the Vagabond confine himself simply to places; but more important, to ideas. Therein lies the adventure of adventure. So come prepared, ye young ones. Soon...

...Cinemarch of TIME No. V. Was the 15 minutes devoted to pictures of U. S. Army defense plans war propaganda or were the editors sincere in wishing to point out the futility and colossal stupidness of such extravagant expenditures by the flash at the end showing "Lloyd's" ?500-to-1 odds against invasion?

There is nothing particularly original about Front Page Woman. Nonetheless, brightly written, eminently well played and directed for comedy values by Michael Curtiz, it is distinctly better than average entertainment. Good shot: Ellen Garfield trying to explain to her city editor that her flash on the outcome of the trial was incorrect...

...Fourth of July at the State Department, plodding Secretary Cordell Hull said that he had received a flash from the U. S. acting Chargé d'Affaires at Addis Ababa giving the gist of the Emperor's appeal but that the U. S. Government obviously could not act before the full five-page text of His Imperial Majesty's communication was received. Next afternoon President Roosevelt, having glanced at the flash, delivered what admiring Idaho Senator Pope later called "a masterpiece of diplomacy." Around 4 p. m. correspondents found the President in one of his most elated...
