...almost anything from the point of view of how it might be turned to the advantage of the League. In Geneva, members of the British delegation and others rumored that at Godesberg last week (see p. 16), Mr. Chamberlain was urging that any European settlement reached with Herr Hitler be "crowned" by having Germany resume membership in a League of Nations now somewhat "revised." Such revision the Scandinavian states launched by announcing that they no longer regarded League members as bound "automatically" to join in applying sanctions to an aggressor. Last week the British delegate, Mr. Richard Austen Butler, served...
While those two big Christian chieftains, Neville Chamberlain and Adolf Hitler, were conferring at Godesberg on world peace last week, in Palestine another peace conference was held between its biggest two Mohammedan terrorist leaders, seven-foot-tall Abdul Rahim Haj Mohammed and Arif Abdul Razik, former Iraq Army officer. Each of these potent terrorists has been signing himself "Commander-in-Chief" of the Arab revolutionary forces. Each has persisted in issuing orders to the other...

Pins and Needles, Rome's Sing Out the News is a custom-tailored, more conservatively cut satire on world events, most of whose pins are safety pins. Recurrent target for its gags, skits, songs, is neither Hitler nor Chamberlain, strikes nor wars, but Franklin D. Roosevelt. Now & then the firecrackers land in F. D. R.'s hair, far oftener in the faces of Republicans and anti-New Dealers. The tycoons take their best beating in Sing Ho for Private Enterprise, where one of them groans...
When Adolf Hitler, at the Nürnberg Congress, last fortnight promised German aid for the Sudeten Germans, his broadcast speech signaled the Sudeten uprising. Touted as an instrument of international harmony, radio has a bad record as a peace maker. It was no bar to war in Spain, war in China. In every major crisis since the World War, radio has shouted provocative insults, challenges. All last week Berlin's official broadcasting voice screamed against "the Czech mass murderers," bombarded the rest of the world with atrocity stories, invented a radio language in which the Czech army...
