...That obedient arm of Josef Stalin's foreign policy, the U. S. Communist Party, is so enthusiastic about Franklin Roosevelt's foreign policy that Earl Browder described the U. S. line of defense in the New Republic last week as "Manila, Honolulu and Nome." Indeed, the No. 1 U.S. Communist let down his hair to the extent of declaring that only courageous action on the part of the President could save from catastrophe ''our country and all the capitalist world...
...Mussolini and Hitler are now out to try to smash the League, and last week they were assisted by Poland's Foreign Minister Josef Beck, who scarcely conceals his Nazi leanings. Colonel Beck, before leaving Warsaw to visit Foreign Minister Constantin von Neurath in Berlin, roundly declared: "The present world crisis is primarily a League crisis, caused by the League's failures. . . .

This brilliant piece of Polish logic gave...
...Curtis graduates now playing in major U. S. orchestras, and with the Institute's Fritz Reiner on the podium they played the pompous Academic Festival Overture of Brahms. The date of the Hofmann Jubilee was also Rubinstein's birthday (Nov. 28). For this reason, and because Josef Hofmann was the only private pupil Rubinstein ever took-after the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Children had his first U. S. tour cut short, and Financier Alfred Corning Clark came to the rescue with $50,000 to subsidize the boy in seclusion until he was 18-Pianist Hofmann...
