...leering Tokyo scanned with rare delight last week a juicy story about French missionaries. Seemingly with full Government approval, closely censored news-organs shrieked details so lurid as to be ludicrous. Lecherous French missionaries, it appeared, have been seducing Japanese girls. The jealousy of two such wenches with respect to their priest caused one of them to unmask him to the police. An entire priestly gang has been making "minute topographic surveys of the Japanese coast with tiny cameras," hiding the films in French missionary churches. To protect themselves against the just wrath of the local Japanese populace, certain French...

Today Japan, having successfully despoiled China of the whole of Manchukuo without outside interference, quite logically expects to force naval equality from Britain...
...payment of $225,000 to Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., an additional liability for $676,000 and an unlimited liability after July 1 unless the deposit insurance law is modified. Yet, Mr. Baker found that new Federal laws as a whole had affected his bank "but little, except in one respect." Three directors had to resign because they were connected with the securities business...
