...name of Premier Painlevé's "new" Foreign Minister was observed to be identical with that which had been "erased" a few hours before. It was Aristide Briand. Seven times M. Briand has been Premier of France. His famed War Cabinet contained every living former Premier.* Since his ill-starred attempt to gain "security" for France at Cannes, in 1922, he has steadily built up that ideal into the concrete embodiment which it achieved at Locarno (TIME, Oct. 2 et seq.). Last week, as Acting President of the Council of the League of Nations, he was able to impose...
...shirted Fascists swarmed like a Titan ant horde, rejoicing militantly at the third anniversary of Fascismo's "bloodless" triumph. Round the motor car of Il Duce, Benito Mussolini, Fascists crowded in a tight packed mass-the quintessence of joyous adoration.

Feminine accessories at once took on an Egyptian character which might have made an ancient Egyptian ill but was good enough to satisfy the public. Vaudeville actors and professional funny men took as many liberties with "King Tut" as they ever did with prohibition. It was a glorious time for the Rameses family while it lasted...
Those who consider that the main argument against the League of Nations is a reiteration of the often ill advised statement, that it is, after all, powerless to do any real good, will do well to remark the present success of the League in silencing the war threats and rifles of the Greeks and Bulgars. In the days before the League was thought of, the Balkan states were always the sore spot of Europe. Not only delighting in the tinsel of melodrama, they liked a bit of the shooting and sword play which goes with the tinsel. So every...
