During every long Presidential silence such talk flourishes and last week the U.S. was in the middle of such a silence. A likely explanation for it was that the President was waiting for the military situation in Russia to grow clearer, for U.S. public opinion to crystallize. A still likelier explanation was that he badly needed the rest he was taking. But at any event last week Franklin Roosevelt left it to others to tell the public what to do about a war which no one should...

Such a dismaying picture of fliers' occupational diseases might be put together from the solid medical handbook for fliers published last week by famed Army Flight Surgeons Malcolm Cummings Grow and Harry George Armstrong (Fit to Fly-Appleton-Century...

If people grow weary of too much of Hope's stylized impudence, it will be largely due to the star's appealing avarice...

Gano Dunn had figured week before that a 10,000,000-ton "horizontal" expansion would cost $1,250,000,000 and probably require...
