...Carefully Distinguishes Between Right & Wrong." In any Eastern country the populace always frantically cheer their Lord and Master,* and both Alexandria and Cairo went deliriously wild last week over Farouk I. In Egypt some $50,000 will buy enough triumphal arches and paper streamers to choke the main streets of Cairo, and this was the sum its civic fathers proudly spent. Everywhere one looked was green- the Egyptian national color-everywhere the flag of Egypt, green with a white crescent and three white stars...

Smythe, Inc. is German-born Otto Peretz Schwarzschild, bald, brown-eyed, proud of the fact that the Schwarzschilds and the Rothschilds-were for generations neighboring banking families of Frankfurt-am-Main. Founder in 1928 of National Statistical Service, Inc., Mr. Schwarzschild still supervises the annual publication of famed, authoritative American Underwriting Houses and Their Issues.
