...Best hint of that was given by the group which the President called in for his big final conference (see cut). Present were: Secretary Morgenthau; Joseph P.Kennedy of the Securities Exchange Commission; Charles West, the President's Congressional contact man; Rexford Guy Tugwell, though he has nominally only a little circle to ru!e over; Admiral Peoples, the Government's best purchasing agent; Director of the Budget Daniel W. Bell-and along with them Mr. Ickes and Mr. Hopkins. For works relief was not a departmental effort. When Franklin Roosevelt took personal charge, the whole Administration...
Henry Ford has yet to file his balance sheets with certain State officials, only source of Ford figures. But a strong hint of which way the Ford wind blew in 1934 came last week when Ford of Canada reported the first profit since 1930-$1,878,000 as contrasted with a $620,000 loss in 1933, a $5,200,000 loss in 1932.

Because its youthful angularities seemed to hint of power in its not-yet-matured bone, critics reserved judgment, hoped to see its promise performed in Author Spencer's second book. Last week, after reading The Island, they wrote off Author Spencer as a case of arrested artistic development...
...relief workers over the num-ber of relief babies, the United Press and the Associated Press caused a burst of fury among pious Catholics. Rev. Ignatius Wiley Cox, professor of ethics at Fordham University, was roused to the extent of threatening a boycott against newspapers which dared to hint that birth control might remedy the situation. Cried he: "Is it logical or even fitting for Catholic:parents to introduce into the sanctuary of the home newspapers which by their editorial policy, their news emphasis and news selection, and their columnists, aim repeated, insidious and deadly blows at the Christian doctrine...
