...Mitsuis by selling Japan's yen short before it was taken off gold. Ever since Mitsui short-selling was exposed the various young patriots tried in Japan for assassinating Pacifist Premier Ki Inukai (TIME. Aug. 7, et seq.) have interlarded their pleadings in court with passionate, often random denunciation of "the traitorous Mitsui!" As a result no successor to Dr. Dan, no Mitsui candidate for assassination, has been appointed. His work is now done by a "Council of Three" Mitsui minions (who hate, fear and dodge photographers) : domineering, onetime newspaperman Seihin Ikeda; softspoken, old-fogyish Nagabumi Ariga; diplomatic, democratic...

Jeffers seems even to his enthusiasts like his description of the mountain coast he inhabits : . . . precipitous, dark-natured, beautiful; without humor, without ever...
Next day soldiers policed the streets as the Communists started their funeral procession, carrying Martyr Mella's ashes in two tin-boxes. Suddenly snipers, whom the Government later branded as Communists, began a random reckless fire from the rooftops which at first crackled over the heads of the Communists and soldiers. Instantly soldiers began to fire, some kneeling and shooting directly into the Communist ranks. Only a sudden burst of tropical rain cut short what might have been a massacre, but two hours later firing began again...
