...title Chief of Staff for National Defense. This was said to "place France on a wartime footing." Just three weeks ago General Gamelin permitted a subordinate general on active service to disclose that a Communist plot to seize the state had been nipped (TIME, Jan. 17), and ever since fresh power has been flooding to the Staff, regardless of shaky politics...
...paintings by 47 artists proved that wholesale contemners of the 19th-Century landscape have been unable to see the woods for the trees. In Colonial America, there was little demand for landscapes. Unknown journeymen painters turned out a few which, like Runaway Horse (see cut), are still as fresh as daisies...
Happy Landing (Twentieth Century-Fox), is blonde, Figure Skater Sonja Henie's third motion picture, makes it clear that Producer Darryl Zanuck must soon find some other way of keeping Miss Henie's films fresh than by putting them on ice.

During the last year Artist Carroll, who likes to ride with the Old Chatham Hunt Club, has been kept at his painting by his wife, Georgia, despite the acquisition of a fine white Irish hunter. Last week the Rehn Galleries hung a fresh collection of Carroll's diaphanous, warm, pink nudes, glinting pickaninny-like Negresses, superbly deft drawings. Done with less delicacy and more fire than usual were Blacksmith, a composition reminiscent of Franklin Watkins, and Deep Down Blue, a black girl rolling her eyeballs in a voodoo dance.
