That Italy was anything but happy over this British intervention in the war was evident from Italian newspapers, which warned Britain that it was now too late to be nice to Generalissimo Franco. A more direct sign of displeasure came when Rebel bombers raided Port Mahon while the Devonshire was still in the harbor, dropping their cargoes so near the cruiser that the crew manned her anti-aircraft guns. Not much more reassuring for the British was a Rebel version of the Minorca surrender which ungratefully toned down Britain's "good offices," trumped up a tale about a brief...
Ideological political differences between nations are often overlooked when the pocketbook is concerned. Anti-Communist Germany was at one time the chief seller of goods to Soviet Russia and. although trade between the two countries is gradually drying up, as late as 1937 15% of Russia's imports came from Germany.

Dr. Albert Coombs (''Argyrol") Barnes of Merion, Pa. got his nickname, his millions, and his great collection of French paintings from the product* he trademarked in 1902 and manufactured until 1930. He got his artistic taste from the sound advice of the late William Glackens (TIME, Dec. 26), from persistent study and from the inquisitive philosophy of his friend John Dewey (see p. 56). White-headed, black-browed Dr. Barnes got his temper, according to his enemies, from the devil himself. Those who have offended him the full-blooded doctor has often publicly...
