...long weighty book-the 1938 edition of Jane's Fighting Ships. Compiled in Britain, this Who's Who of warships describes, classifies and pictures the armed vessels of the world so that naval officers who spot them on the horizon can tell at a glance to what nation they belong, what type of ship they are, and make preparations to fight or run away. Each year Jane's brings the compendium of marine armed forces up to date with details of new ships, alterations and ships projected. Biggest known buyer of the book: the Japanese Navy, which...

Meanwhile, Germany has become a nation of uniforms, goose-stepping to Hitler's tune, where boys of ten are taught to throw hand grenades, where women are regarded as breeding machines. Most cruel joke of all, however, has been played by Hitler & Co. on those German capitalists and small businessmen who once backed National Socialism...
...which changes from day to day, but most observers believe Germany superior in warplanes. Despite a shortage of trained officers and a lack of materials, the Germany Army has become a formidable machine which could probably be beaten only by a combination of opposing armies. As testimony to his nation's puissance, Führer Hitler could look back over the year and remember that besides receiving countless large-bore statesmen (Mr. Chamberlain three times, for instance), he paid his personal respects to three kings (Sweden's Gustaf, Denmark's Christian, Italy's Vittorio Emanuele) and was visited by two (Bulgaria...
