Bishop Davis hinted at another danger implicit in the retirement rule. "We have here," said he, "an expression of the present tendency, so apparent in civil life, to centralize authority beyond the point originally contemplated by the 'Founders' and beyond the limits of a democratic system." Bishop Davis promised that he would fight compulsory retirement even before he turned...
...anyone can see who knows or cares anything about the seriousness of the subject, the makers of the film have not included any of the dynamite implicit in a truly forthright treatment of the subject. There is no mention of segregation, of friction between Negro soldiers and white soldiers and civilians. But Carlton Moss, a Negro who wrote the film's script, was overall adviser for the production and acted in it, assured white friends who were discouraged by its mildness that the picture would mean more to Negroes than most white men could imagine...
Adolf Hitler issued his fifth New Year's proclamation of the war last week.

Moral for Americans. Careful Carl Crow draws only one moral from his collection of early Americana: that the U.S. grew great precisely because it "had no carriage trade," and had to cater to the needs of its ubiquitous poor.

In so doing they forced their...
With each retreat, also, the poison of defeat will spread. Especially vulnerable will be the Balkans, wrhere the heavy thud of approaching Russian sapogi (boots) might well set off explosive anti-German sentiment. The German command knows well the dangers implicit in these airline distances from the Eastern front: to the Ploesti oil fields, 530 miles; to the old Polish frontier, 95 miles; to Germany proper, 475 miles...
