Herter. The real meaning of the series of high-level meetings, said Herter in a speech to the National Foreign Trade Council in Manhattan, is that a new process of communication between East and West may be developing. "I say 'may' because only time can tell whether we shall have learned to talk somewhat less at cross purposes than in the past, and with better understanding of opposing points of view." Khrushchev, said Herter, had said there was a need for "a common language despite the ideological conflict to which he staunchly adheres. Many will find this hard...
Another problem arises from the difficulty of expansion.

...from him by the villain (Herbert Lorn), a sneery guide from the neighboring valley who sneaks off in the predawn darkness to beat him to the top? The last reel of the picture finds him chasing the wretch up what purports to be (but obviously is not) the sheer east face of the Matterhorn, in an exhibition of freehanded folly that made one old Alpinist who saw the picture snicker and inquire: "Why not do it on roller skates?
