...haired Congressman John Phillips added his plea: "We wanted you to stay as Governor, but now we have a bigger job for you." Delegate Ruth Buchanan, a Glendale housewife, spoke of his "duty to the nation." The words became more heated. There were mutterings that Warren was being a traitor to his Party, and cutting his political throat as well. A freshman delegate, burly, forthright Movie Producer David O. Selznick (Gone with the Wind, Rebecca, Since You Went Away), stopped such talk. Said he: "Who are we to question our . . . Governor's decision? He's just as patriotic...

From Moscow, New York Timesman Ralph Parker noted that the Russians would find a Catholic priest's help handy in placating Poland's intensely religious Catholics. In Washington, the State Department curtly explained the passport: it was issued...
Thoughtful men thought twice when they learned that sardonic, myopic Subhas Chandra Bose, traitor, was with the Japs around Imphal. Twice President of the Indian National Congress and long the loudest foe of British rule in India, Bose's name was wildly cheered in Delhi after Bose himself had turned up in Berlin seeking Hitler's aid in freeing India.
