Ralph, according to his bureau chief, John Stanton, is a warm, round, emotional, faintly picaresque Mexican who somehow "manages to remind you vaguely of Queen Victoria." His seemingly inexhaustible, elastic and highly valuable know-how is the result of all that Ralph has been and is. His familiarity with Mexican ways is perhaps best exemplified by his faith in the power of documents. Unimpressed by the ordinary correspondent's press card, he designed his own.

He discourses by the hour to such visitors as Cinemactor Tyrone Power on the urgent need for a Central American union (TIME, Sept...
...lakes may be an accumulation of thaw water at the end of the Antarctic summer. But there was at least a chance that they are heated from below. (The geyser region of Yellowstone is slightly heated in this way, and many parts of the world have warm springs which tend to keep lakes from freezing.) The romantics and the tale-spinners could take it from there...
