...very pretty, your account of the eastern intercollegiate glee club contest in TIME this week [March 28], but why not tell also about the far larger and more important National intercollegiate glee club contest, which I heard here in Chicago?

He links Nicaragua with American imperialism, the Panama Canal, possible war with Japan, and the late disarmament proposals. In his article, "La Canal du Nicaragua ot La Strategie Americaine" in the "Revue des Deux Mondes", March 15, he traces point by point the true basis for the administration's disarmament proposals. They were not put forth, it appears, to throw the public scent off Central America nor in a moment of misdirected pacifist feeling...
