...ever was a Communist. For all that the next 15 Government witnesses established to the contrary, the Service's Deputy Commissioner Thomas B. Shoemaker might have dispensed with them and saved much wear & tear on Harvard Law School's Dean James M. Landis, sitting as special examiner by the very special request of Secretary of Labor Perkins. Since Mr. Shoemaker had no direct evidence that Bridges actually belonged to the Communist Party when the complaint was filed (March 2, 1938), his only recourse was an attempt to show circumstantially that Defendant Bridges thought, talked, acted like a Communist...
...Like Paris and Berlin, London is ringed with guns, balloons, and searchlights. The special province of the British is the multiplication of instructive pamphlets with titles as long as Punch captions ( Your gas mask, how to keep it and how to use it; some things you should know if war should come). They are crammed with common sense and pat slogans like: "Take Care of Your Gas Mask and Your Gas Mask Will Take Care of You."

...Assistant Attorney General Thurman Arnold accused the American Medical Association of being a trust. Said he, the A. M. A. had "restrained trade" by closing the doors of Washington hospitals to doctors employed by Group Health Association, Inc., a voluntary health-insurance club of Government employes. In December a special Grand Jury indicted the A. M. A. for violating the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. The A. M.
