...question and answer, which will sound over the nation to similar medical societies practicing similar tactics, is no abstract legal issue, but a determination of whether or not such admittedly experimental plans will be granted grace to prove their success or failure. No categorical decision can be rendered on "socialized medicine" versus "private competitive practice," as every high-school debater should know. The issue has too many facets, too large a setting. Doctors (and who should know better?) are sincere in their belief that collectivism will topple the high standards of the profession. The socially conscious, on the other hand...
...capital. For every mile gained, however, the Japanese paid a fancy price in blood and munitions. To replace gaps caused by death and sickness, 26,000 Japanese soldiers moved up the Yangtze on transport ships to aid the 180,000 already engaged in the campaign. Most notable temporary Japanese success last week was the cutting of the Hankow-Peking Railway, about 100 miles north of Hankow, by Japanese cavalry which had completed a 200-mile cross-country drive.

David Fairchild and an associate were the first to try out Bordeaux mixture with success on Virginia vineyards...
...remains a fool as well as a nuisance. Hitherto, Hitler has contented himself mainly with declaring what bad art is, has attacked all more or less experimental modern art as "Jewish" and "Bolshevist." Last year he opened a hall of "degenerate" art in Munich which proved a great success (TIME, Aug. 2, 1937). At Nürnberg last month, Realmleader Hitler, having awarded Nazi Culture Prizes No. 1 and No. 2 to Warplane Designers Heinkel and Messerschmitt, surpassed himself as an esthetician with a new pronunciamento on German art.
