Fearful Crime. The Wilder-Diamond adaptation consists mostly of frequent, unfortunate embellishments. Wilder and Diamond conjure up, for instance, an Oriental cathouse that is never seen but frequently talked about, generally with such references as "I sure could use a little of that sweet and sour right now."

Mills has clearly not been himself for some months, and it was his odd behavior, as much as his recent shenanigans with Fanne Foxe, that caused the Democrats in the House to move against...
