...Moscow, Tass, official Soviet news agency, not only reported (from Scandinavian sources) the arrival of the Italian planes in Finland, but stated that they had even landed to refuel in their flight across Germany. Furthermore, said Tass, it had heard that Germany herself was forwarding planes, munitions and even gasoline to Finland. To this Germany issued a cagey denial...
...Also in Moscow. German diplomats made the most of the evident German double cross on Russia (in partial payment for Russia's double cross in taking control of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania).

...Holyoke Bookshop, which has a natural concern with its own financial problems, is surprised to find this interest shared by Councilor Sullivan and the CRIMSON to the extent of three news stories in a single week. The imaging the accounts of red nests and Moscow gold and police visits (no such police visit as the CRIMSON describes over occurred) are amusing, do doubt, but our laughter becomes a little wry when we see how this complements on a potty local scale the attempts of the Dies Committee to frighten liberals and progressives into inactivity and silence...
