...intends to cancel its embargo preventing the shipment of arms into Mexico, if the Mexican Government does not yield in the matter of allegedly confiscatory land and oil laws (TIME, Jan. 25, 1926 et seq.).

Forsooth, we do those things better in our day, when on the stage you will find cubistic representations of the sub-conscious mind in action. Pop the lights on and off, revolve them in circles of green, yellow and red. Shoot off a pistol now and then; no doubt about it, you have caught the modern dream element. R. H.
