...London was disquieting. The War Cabinet met, decided: 1) to base Britain's policy on the assumption that the war will last three years or more; 2) to instruct all Government departments to make plans on that assumption; 3) to expand production, especially munitions, to meet the demand implicit in that policy; 4) to maintain export trade in the interests of the civil needs of the country...
...stamped with the quality of grave decision that has marked the great crises of Parliament. Mr. Churchill did not speak. When the vote came he walked out the door on the Government side of the House, thereby signifying his assent to the granting of war powers to the Government. Implicit in Prime Minister Chamberlain's speech, no less than in the news of war over London, was an acknowledgement that Churchill had been right.

In one breath she confesses that her novels sold well because they were escapist...
...Implicit in the President's fiscal philosophy of 1939 is therefore a tacit acknowledgment of an idea that political realists long have harbored: expenditures cannot be reduced for reasons both political and social; the U. S. economic system is going to support a larger and larger debt; the U. S. budget is not likely to be balanced by the New Deal or by a successor administration for a long time to come. Corollary of this (not of course believed by the President) is that the U. S. debt will never be paid off, and that until some drastic event...
