...criticising Mr. Coolidge. What he did was ethical. If Mr. Long comes to me with the same proposal I shall say, Go to it. But I am wondering if my fellow Vermonter isn't feeling that Editor Long is being over glorified when TIME gives such space to the mystery. Perhaps Mr. Coolidge's New England conscience is being (unduly) pricked, and that he wishes TIME hadn't stressed this Long achievement.

It is not news that Catholic War Minister Karl Vaugoin openly advocates the proclamation of a Fascist Dictatorship, while Communist Otto Bauer, onetime Foreign Minister, is quite as eager to proclaim a Dictatorship of the Proletariat. Finally there is not space in which to note that Wall Street is inclined to sell distinctly short on Austria-as is shown by the fact that it has recently proved impossible for the Government at Vienna to borrow in Manhattan $100,000,000 urgently needed to revamp Austria's state railways, telegraphs, telephones...
