...window. In the flogging scene the audience could fairly hear the swish of the whip. When the father-in-law lay dying, Soviet scorn of the church was equally apparent. The priest who performed the perfunctory rites sang a song which sounded like a rowdy equivalent of "Hail. Hail, the Gang's All Here!" Musicians in last week's audience sat fascinated by the uncanny way the orchestra described each character, each situation. Laymen liked the swift-moving stage pictures, consistently more effective than those in almost any other opera. Sometimes sheer noise created the excitement...

All over France, in the Champagne, Bordeaux and Burgundy districts, weather has been ideal for the vine this summer. There was little hail, and the drought that burned up wheat crops only made deep-rooted grapes the sweeter. Analyses of the green wine have already sent prices soaring, but production all over Europe will be huge. Bordeaux expects to produce 500,000,000 litres of 1934 compared with 337,000,000 litres...
