...worth while to learn the English language, to enjoy in this cursed part of the world the very interesting contents of your recent article (TiME, July 24) about Mussolini & Family. Too bad that our press is forbidden to publish such articles-let me say facts-about "prominent" people; their only task is to lessen the strength of the democracies in the eyes of the masses, and to increase the prestige of the "Axis...

Last December the aged hero got so mad at Nazi hecklers at a Budapest opera that he left his box, climbed upstairs to theirs directly overhead, would have assaulted them had detectives not intervened. Recent success of a book called Germany Can't Win, attacking Nazi theories of a lightning war, cheered Count Csaky's opponents: it plugged for Hungarian independence, damned Nazi theorists by quoting Germany's military...

To the seven, Munnings made violent objection: six were "childish beginnings" that he had outgrown, one he had not even painted. He insisted that all seven come...
...Boys-from-Syracuse fixes have complicated the steady lives of the boys from Rochester, but they face routine confusions. Recent example: a friend mistook Bill for Rob on Main Street, apologized for his error when Bill identified himself. Few days later he stopped Bill again and told him of his mistake, again sure he was Rob. Bill did not bother to explain. After 70 years it is an old story...
