...prepare for Donna's convalescence, she had been written out of the script for the next three weeks. Device used was to have Marge's radio husband, a low-lifer, foully murdered, have her suspect Mother Myrt of the crime and run away to think things over. Last week as Donna lay in a Manhattan funeral parlor, a wake of Myrt & Marge fans like Valentino's seemed in the making.

The only sour note is that they wash out first-line fighting planes faster than we're building them. But Ruth Hussey...

Few of the men & women who might tell how Communism really works ever escaped to tell. The handful who did* were defeated by a twofold irony: 1) they were suspect as Communists, doubly suspect as ex-Communists; 2) the things of which they tried to warn the world were so monstrous that few believed them...
