Police clubs clunked on the heads of Newspaper Guildsmen and blood was spilled in the shadow of Chicago's Civic Opera Building on Wacker Drive last week as the Guild staged its biggest strike. Out of the Hearst-owned Herald & Examiner and evening American had walked 600 editorial, business and circulation workers on the grounds that their contracts with the papers had been systematically violated...
...planted in an American life that is Allen to her has been a favorite subject of Rachel Field's. A few years ago the story of the Prussian Lady who had been married to Samuel Hadlock and brought back to spend the rest of her days under the shadow of the blue Mount Desert Hills on lonely Cranberry Island was told in "God's Pocket."

Blum is justified in calling a "shadow parliament" and in rebuking Daladier for refusing to convoke the French Parliament. Putting these laws into effect without consulting the people's representatives violated the spirit of democracy. Such uncalled-for methods will no more serve to produce the unity which that country so badly needs than constant rebellion against the forces of rule. When Daladier...
