...explosive gutturals, and astonished the easy-going Bavarian populace by his harsh, tense mien. Next minute Der Führer, having saluted II Duce inside the station in the presence of privileged bigwigs, emerged beaming with his guest, while heavy German guns crashed 21 times in salute. Unlike Stalin, who always drives fast in a closed Hispano (see p. 22), Hitler and Mussolini sat side by side in a slowly moving open Mercedes, but each side of the street was double lined with Schutzstaffel, shoulder to shoulder...
...Gorky. It is now nearly up to planned production, is turning out daily 400 trucks and 82 little sedans of 4-cylinder Ford type. But while this substantial success at the Molotov Plant may please and flatter Soviet Premier Molotov, for whom the factory was named, Soviet Dictator Stalin has been anything but pleased by such results as Old Bolshevik Dybets has been able to achieve at the Stalin Plant in Moscow.

That is the end of free speech which is the end of everything properly called American...
...lines of the Four-Power Pact by which Britain, France, Italy and Germany agreed some years ago to cooperate for the peace of the world (TIME, June 19, 1933, et ante). Dormant though it has lain, this Pact still exists, is one of the boojums with which Stalin frightens Russians from time to time, pointing to it as a "proof" that there is a Capitalist league against the Soviets. In Paris the present Chautemps Cabinet of the Left was again rocked last week by a fresh severe fall of the franc. With the Paris Exposition drawing to its close, wiseacres...
