Germany has sent $300,000 of U. S. currency (probably seized in invaded countries) to New York banks in the last two months-its first sizable shipments in years.

Last week the Marshal again justified his nickname when he and a number of lesser officers executed a mass escape from their camp and apparently from Rumania.

But he does not try to burden her with all the facts of life. Since his book has a solid grounding in biology, and gives detailed sex information, Dr. Levine recommends it for children past...
