This arrondissement in northern Paris is a factory workers' district, almost solidly Communist but with a minority of hard-headed little cafe and shop keepers who are tough - or with their middle-class ideas they would not live in Clichy. Some of these shopkeepers belong to the new French Social Party, successor to the bourgeois Croix de Feu league of gentle manly and insipid Colonel Count Casimir de La Rocque (TIME, April 20). Last week the Social Party hired the Olympia cinema house in Clichy for a special showing of their film La Bataille. Communists at once protested. Paris...
...were the 15 points of Armco policy, starting off with a declaration of high business ethics, winding up with a pru dent word about making good banking connections "in advance of their need" and liberally interlaced with such pur poses as the promotion of "Americanism and a real, live spirit of patriotism."

It was bribery of this sort that set Central Europe on stable feet after the World War. Isolationist sentiment ties the hands of the United States, the logical country to offer itself as arbiter between the sides and as manager...
Although it would be unfair to the men in the House to say that they live to eat, rather than eat to live; it cannot be denied that the Winthrop House Dining Hall is popularly elected as that part of the House "most likely to succeed." Every man in the House will agree that the popularity of the dining hall can be attributed to Mrs. De Pinto, the Head Waitress. The academic year is hardly launched before Mrs. "Dee" knows the names of all "her boys." Her charming smile and friendly word has brightened up many a luncheon or dinner...
