In a country which boasts 170,000 licensed medical men, 1,180 is an inconsiderable number. Yet a tremendous hue & cry has been raised by American physicians against the hospitality the U. S. has extended to foreign "competitors." Last week Medical Economics which reaches the office of almost every doctor in the U. S., issued a loud blast against "Refugees Unlimited...
Once again the hue and cry has arisen, and head-lines of a new "red" drive splash across the nation. The latest variant is the American Federation of Labor's threat to drive from home its child organization, the Teachers' Federation, unless the latter "cleans house" and ousts local "communist-controlled" units.

Some dramatists limit their scope to the portrayal of but one shadow, some become hopelessly embroiled in combinations too great for their artistry, but once in a great while a dramatist avoids the overemphasis of one hue to the exclusion of all others and sometimes he avoids the dilemma of a canvass splattered with all hues. When he has done this he has created a clay in which the pertinent colors are mixed with such subtlety and craftsmanship that a mere kaleidoscopic pattern takes form and breathes and becomes...
