Senator Pat Harrison made the Administration's chief point that 16 such trade agreements have been made and since 1934 trade with those nations has increased from $1,400,000,000 to $1,900,000,000. Republicans hammered back with the argument that the bill delegated too much power to the President. More point was added by Senator Vandenberg when he said: Since the agreements were made, "our exports to Canada . . . went up 17%, but our imports from Canada . . . went up 30%. Our exports to Cuba went up 11%, but our imports from Cuba went up 19% Our exports...
With such a clear-cut division of parties the outcome was obvious. Not a single Republican voted for the bill, but 14 voted against it. They were joined by a handful of Democrats, mostly from sugar and cattle States. Then the big Democratic majority did its work and reciprocal trade agreements were sanctioned for another three years...
...only such team at the head of a major U. S. magazine. Circulation success has attended the efforts of the Goulds and of Promotion Manager Richard Ziesing Jr. to keep the Journal up where it was in its great days under the late Edward Bok. Last week in the trade press, the Journal was announcing that its January circulation had hit its all-time high of more than 2,900,000 copies.

His range of publications includes such variety as the Daily Herald, with a 2,000,000 circulation, Weekly Illustrated, Debrett (Britain's social register), The People, Passing Show, and John Bull. Editor-in-chief of every organ put out by Odhams is John Dunbar, a Scot with...
...that she was with Beelzebub. After that only Roger's opportune horseback arrival could possibly save her life. In spite of valiant effort by a harassed cast, the dialog is of the prithee and methinks kind and never gets the strophe of real human talk. MacMurray, heretofore a trade emblem of flip 20th-century youth, invents a kind of brogue which fails to transport him back two centuries and a half. Best shots: careful and authentic reproductions of colonial candle-dripping, house-raising parties, medical methods...
