Hitler has supplied the nation with an idealism it has long been in need for development. The German people at the moment are whole-heartedly in sympathy with his policies; it is not for any other nation to say what is right or what is wrong for another people. That they have turned a race out of their country is their own concern, and no one else...
Silently, swiftly, the meticulously spaced parade of men-o'-war bore by. The sounds that came across the steel-grey waters to the President's ear were few and sharp: brass bands playing one chorus of the national anthem, the six-pounders saluting 21 times, like doors banging in a distant, empty house. A thousand yards astern of the carriers footed seven Treaty cruisers of the Scouting Force, then a brood of 21 destroyers. Two thousand yards behind them glided the cruisers and destroyers of the Battle Force, followed by nine of the nation's 15 capital...
When War becomes a nation's No. 1 business, any Government would like to abolish the profit system and take over the whole country. Next to Soviet Russia, Fascist nations are best equipped to do so.

As virtual Governor during the fatal six-month illness of Wartime Governor Ernest Lister...
This year the nation's universities are more than making up to Secretary Hull for his trip to London. By last week, with four LL. D.'s awarded or promised, he was well in the lead for the 1934 title of champion kudos collector not only of the Cabinet but of the nation. Notre Dame honored him last week, Columbia and George Washington were to do so this week, William & Mary next week. Attorney General Cummings broke into the scoring column out of season (last February) with an LL. D. from Rollins, got another last fortnight from Oglethorpe...
