...morning came a loud buzz on the doorbell of the White House Offices. Secret Service men rushed out-for not in months had that bell been rung-glared at a man who meekly said, ''I am Judge Mack of Poughkeepsie. I have an appointment to lunch with the President." So he had, for he was to suggest to the Democratic Convention in Philadelphia this week, as he did in 1932, that it ought to nominate Franklin Roosevelt for President...
...scotched last week, and scotched they were. Amid regal pomp the Duke of Addis Ababa drove to the Secretariat of the Fascist Party, majestically ascended its marble stair and received a card enrolling him as a member of the Fascist Party.

S. doubles team. On the courts of the Germantown Cricket Club, where France won the Cup from...

At a meeting of the New York chapter of the American Statistical Association last fortnight no less than three went on record with loud warnings. Said Columbia University's Leland Rex Robinson: "Now hardly seems the time to pay high premiums for bonds. . . . The higher the grade of bond the greater the speculation in buying it now. It is difficult to see how the artificially low interest rates and bond yields . . . can much longer continue...
