...agenda papers like swords and shouted in unison: "What we have we hold! We hold! WE HOLD!" This Tory spectacle came just before the Conference voted with virtual unanimity the strongest possible resolution demanding that the Government inform Germany that the question of returning any British territory to the Reich "is not a discussible question...
...addressing the guests, without the aid of any translators, in English, French, German and Spanish, all of which he speaks fluently. This tour de force was enjoyed by the 650 foreign delegates who showed up. These included : Germany's Herr Doktor Julius Dorpmuller, the pudgy head of the Reich rail roads who was President of the second World Power Conference in Berlin six years ago; Japan's beaming Professor Masawo Kamo, who has a flair for oratory in broken English accompanied by dra matic gestures; Britain's horsey-looking Evelyn Hugh Boscawen, Viscount Falmouth, Governor...

Last week, at the same price, the same technique was used to let the Reich's Reds know how U. S. Reds felt about the German attitude toward the Spanish Revolution (see p. 18). Hour and a half before sailing time, there was a sudden burst of firecrackers outside the Bremen's pier. In unison 150 men & women, attired in evening dress and stationed...
