...subscriber to your esteemed magazine TIME, I wish to take exception to the reference to Mr. Henry Ford as the No. 1 U. S. soybean man, as appears in the issue of Oct. 12. I feel that your article and general information on the soybean industry is very accurate and extremely well written and I think that if you make the proper investigation you will find that Mr. A. E. Staley, chairman of the board of the A. E. Staley Manufacturing Co. of Decatur, Ill. should be considered by all odds the No. 1 soybean...

The so-called Madrid Government had dispersed (TIME, Oct. 26, Nov. 16). Its president, Don Manuel Azana, a Republican, was in Barcelona last week and its Premier, Francisco Largo Caballero, a Marxian, was in Valencia with the rest of the Cabinet. In a manifesto they claimed to be supported by the Soviet Union and by the Mexican Republic...
...foreign capitals last week arrived Madrid's first atrocity pictures of the war (see cut). Instead of making the mistake Italy made when she released unprintable pictures of Italian soldiers castrated by Ethiopians (TIME, Oct. 28, 1935), the Caballero Cabinet, sagely advised by Ambassador Rosenberg, released printable pictures of attractive children killed by White air raids without being horribly mangled...
