...keep up with the demand for tutorial, which is increased since the only Faculty in the field is a board of tutors, there should be something done to ameliorate the poor laboratory and library facilities which exist at present, and eventually to give the field a home of its own. Sooner or later there should be a wider variety of basic courses offered especially for men in this field, such as physical chemistry, bio-physics and perhaps the present Chemistry 44. This should lead to the creation of Professors in this field for its has heretofore been considered a subfield...

Although freedom of the press ceased to exist in Rightist & Leftist territory as soon as the civil war began, a reputed additional charge by General Yague that much Rightist propaganda has been "stupid" was more than proved later last week.

With the stupidity of a Hitler, a Stalin or a Mussolini, President Franco by decree subordinated all Rightist Spanish news-organs to his Government last week. Under Article 17 of the new law the Government "shall have the power to punish administratively any conduct which directly or indirectly tends...

...Inter-House Committee is like the Privy Council of English Parliamentary Government. It exists but scarcely ever meets. To most, in fact, the Inter-House Committee is not even a myth, its activities are so very inconspicuous. But such an organization does exist and there is full excuse for its being.
