...Paul Husserl, onetime script editor for the cine-MARCH OF TIME. Following the current vogue, Editor Husserl packed his first issue with many more pictures than paragraphs, hired four artists, most notably Jaro Fabry, to illuminate what interstices were left between photographs and text. Best shots: a full page of Henry Armetta titled "Portrait of Expostulation " and "Double Feature," a photograph of a Manhattan theatre marquee advertising Romeo & Juliet and Mama Steps...
...pyramid more painlessly than could Congress. First step, said he, would be elimination of Alleghany Corp., not Chesapeake Corp. as he had announced fortnight before.

The committee's nominee was Dr. Frederick May Eliot, Boston-born pastor for the past 20 years of Unity Church in St. Paul, Minn., chairman of an appraisal commission which worked for two years on a 348-page report detailing the ills of organized Unitarianism.

In Washington and Philadelphia publicity-wise politicians were making capital of the grand old document's 150th anniversary. And last week appeared a timely, eminently readable history of the U. S. Constitution to show thoughtful readers what lay back of the headlines...
...Author, No New Dealer but a scholar-journalist who for 42 years has been a keen observer of the U. S. scene. Burton Jesse Hendrick has thrice won the Pulitzer Prize, twice for biographies (Life and Letters of Walter H. Page, 1922; The Training of an American, 1928), once for history (coauthor with Admiral William Sowden Sims: The Victory at Sea, 1920). Keen observers of the current literary scene considered that Bulwark of the Republic might well earn Author Hendrick prize...
