...President's latest decree on the National Labor Board may, without any occult insight into the backstage life of the N. R. A., be safely termed a victory for the shrewdly-hitting Secretary of Labor over her burly opponent, Hugh Johnson.

Whether the Cowboys, represented by the home team, or the Indians from Hanover will be victorious is a question still obscure except to the miraculous insight of our colleague, Dr. Hu Flung Huey. TIME OUT ventures into this diatribe with little confidence in his power and many trepidations. For the Harvard team is not faithful.
