Unity leaders were alarmed to hear that Homer Martin had agreed to further restrictions on G.M. grievance committees, which even last year functioned none too smoothly, but their chief complaint is Martin's disregard of democratic procedure, typified for them by his failure to submit the G. M. supplementary agreement to the membership for ratification. Last week, though Unity leaders disclaimed any part in it, evidence was accumulating of a drive to oust Martin before...
...whole Shantung-Honan-Hopeh area the Japanese last week were showing none of the decisive "punch" to which harried Chinese have become resigned at Hankow, the capital of Chiang.

All the Living runs the gamut from a cheerful nut willing to swap the White House for a cigar to sex-tormented...
