...figure in a national way. With Charles F. Murphy (Tammany), and Roger Sullivan (Illinois), Tom Taggart in 1912 manoeuvred so as to control apparently the balance of power in the famed Baltimore Convention, to the academic Mr. Wilson's distaste. Indicted in 1915 for election frauds, he nevertheless was appointed Senator by Governor Ralston the next year to fill the unexpired term of Senator Shively.

...Beryl Mills did not like to disappoint her interviewers. And she thinks "all this talk about how vulgar you Americans are," is "silly." She thinks Americans are "perfectly adorable," especially U.S. college girls, even if they do smoke more than Australians and use "ever so much more" makeup.

Mars, the god who more than any other has the power to forge huge newspaper circulations (the Spanish-American war "made" the New York Journal-TIME, Aug. 16), is revered and propitiated by editors everywhere. Nevertheless, Dr. Shillito pressed his point. "What is needed," he said, "is not propaganda for peace so much as a reasonable and continuous interpretation of the nations to each other. They ought to know the best in each other-not the worst...

...Nevertheless, I was always con scious and I saw the queer, deep, dark blue of a cloudless and mistless sky; a far deeper blue than that seen from the earth's sur face. . . . I could feel the tightening of the contracting metal parts of the plane." (Contraction was due to intense cold). When his barograph registered 12,800 metres, Pilot Callizo descended, hovering at 500 metres, to collect his shocked faculties. After inspection of his instruments, officials credited him with having flown higher than any man- 12,422 metres (40,820 ft., nearly 8 mi., two-fifths...
