Suspicion into Hate. Among Dictator Primo de Rivera's first acts was to pardon (in 1923) disgraced General Berenguer, then under sentence of 20 years' imprisonment. In 1924 the Dictator again kept the General out of jail, allowed him to spend a pleasant month in a remote Spanish castle in lieu of serving six months in prison, as did several of Berenguer's friends, for the crime of denouncing at a public banquet the Dictature...
...King?still partial to General Berenguer?made him Chief of the Casa Militar (Royal Military Household ). Many believe that the wily General managed in this intimate post to sow suspicion, then hate, between King and Dictator. The seed has been four years in sprouting ?and economic factors have been at least as potent as intrigue...
Another act of Custodian Garvan was to sell the confiscated Bosch Magneto Co. For this he was charged with defrauding the government of $5,500,000 but the case was dismissed last fortnight. From these things he probably conceived his great hate of the Teuton shadow. Last week he accused Senator Moses, former State Attorney General Merton E.

Chemical Corp., which he sent to the office of the State...
...puppet-President of Russia, a peasant-born figurehead (TIME, Nov. 26, 1928). Some 150,000,000 peasants hope that he defends their interests in proletarian councils of the Kremlin. He tries to. But last week he was obliged to pledge his support to a policy most peasants hate, the project to exterminate the kulak or "moneyed peasant" as a class (TIME, Jan. 13). Just now this is the thing closest to the heart of cold, quiet Dictator Josef Stalin, the arch-proletarian who is also making Russia stride...
...story being operatically artificial, Director Lionel Barrymore was entitled to use scenery both beautiful and absurd. But he need not have made the tale of love and hate so limp. Passion never touches the audience, which is delighted whenever Comedians Laurel & Hardy and buttocks of the horses in their care intervene to provide raucous merriment. By the success of this humor Director Barrymore reveals his failure in the main chance. And Tibbett can never be called the singing Douglas Fairbanks until his way with both horses and women is at least the equal of his attendant clowns...
