Sergei Eisenstein's much disputed film is being shown at the Fine Arts Theatre in Boston for the first time. I can not see why the critics were so partial to the director in their reviews and so annoyed with Upton Sinclair who cut two hundred thousand feet of film to a length suitable for a feature picture. After viewing the film one is convinced that the original scenario remains intact, and that the only possible reason to reprove Mr. Sinclair would be that he made the film too short...
...Negro problem." For her and her readers the Negro is the Southern plantation darky, whom Southerners always represent as being a lovable, child-like creature, living as a happy dependent on a sympathetic white master.

Blueprints have been laid out for the creation of model, attractive towns for the workers to be employed. Schemes...
...whole family, old and young. We value your publication not only for its brilliant readability, correctness and broad outlook on national and world affairs but for its impartial selection and statement of all significant news. . . . Tonight we were disappointed to see TIME used as a bait for a very partial and one-sided discussion in an after-program. As you know, the Administration program has about crowded adverse discussion off the air. Questionable methods have been used for a long time now to get the views of the Committee for the Nation and those views alone before the American people...
