...letter declared that the Rightist revolt against the Madrid Government was "legitimate"; the February 1936 election which put a Leftist coalition in power was unjust "because of the arbitrary annulment of votes." Russia was responsible for the revolution: "Immediately after the triumph of the People's Front, the Russian Komintern . . . financed it with extraordinary amounts of money. . . . The work of destruction was realized to cries of 'Long Live Russia.' In the shadow of the international Communist flag . . .

Vogues of 1938 (Walter Wanger) can be chalked up as a minor Hollywood triumph on two counts: 1) it is the most enticing example of Technicolor yet produced; 2) it has apparently found a formula for transforming the fashion show from a boring newsreel short to a full-length revue that both men and women can sit through without squirming.

S. fight promotion began in 1934 when Madison Square Garden, longtime promoter of at least one annual boxing match for Mrs. William Randolph Hearst's Free Milk Fund for Babies, decided to discontinue that practice...
...Chamberlain has been overjoyed not to have to touch this bill, fortunately presented by a sort of Court Jester to His Majesty the British Public. Jester Herbert has not taken lightly criticisms of his bill by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
