...Brussels Conference (TIME, Nov. 22 et ante), stood deserted last week by the chief delegates of Britain, France and Russia. They had returned to their capitals, leaving second-stringers at Brussels, and leaving Ambassador Davis to keep his temper while the windup of the conference gave the Italian Delegate Luigi Aldrovandi-Marescotti, Count of Viano, opportunity to say that Rome "has deemed this conference entirely superfluous from the very beginning and has had no reason since to change its mind...
...Hollywood last month (TIME, Oct. 18) Rome was turning Hollywood Director Rouben Mamoulian into a lion. To Hollywood, II Duce's son was the unattractive symbol of a repressive political system. To Rome, Director Mamoulian, despite his Hollywood background, was an artist and a good one. Film Tsar Luigi Freddi entertained him at his home, where no Hollywoodman has been before.

S. (Ambassador wished to insert are "historically incorrect." Grey & graceful Norman Hezekiah Davis then subsided; the note was sent off to Tokyo; the Conference rose until Japan should see fit to reply, and its chief European delegates departed to their own capitals, leaving underlings to act in Brussels. Members of the U. S. delegation said that Ambassador Davis...
Back to Italy a few months ago went Dr. Senise to tackle the then head of Fascist films, Luigi Freddi, in the expensive Cinema City that II Duce has built outside Rome. To Filmtsar Freddi the idea of cinemoperas seemed "too big, too beautiful" for Italy. Piqued Dr. Senise went immediately to Vittorio Mussolini, who carried the plan just as quickly to papa...
