Sitting in solemn convention in Manhattan's Hotel Waldorf-Astoria last week was the "Congress of American Industry," annual session of the National Association of Manufacturers. If the delegates, some 2,000 strong, were not all Business, at least they were a big slice of it, representatives of the employers of one-half of the country's industrial labor. However, meeting at a time when for the first time in five years the New Deal had been set back on its heels-by a new depression-they were in a new position. For the voice of Business, although...
Bernard mortuary, full during the winter of victims of accidents, to be identified and claimed by their relatives in the spring. The remainder of the solemn, slow-moving picture was filmed in the French monastery of La Trappe, to enter which Director Alexandre needed to employ as much wire-pulling and salesman ship as he did in making Cloistered.

The solemn youngster seated himself on a high chair at a piano whose pedals had been built up to be within reach of his short legs. In the wings offstage stood the boy's mother, an opera singer of Warsaw, and his father, who had taught him to play the piano so well that...
Last week the walls of Manhattan's famed Carnegie Hall rang to the strong strains of Welsh folk-music. Most of the performing Cymry were born in Wales, now live in the U. S. The solemn, intense, long-skulled choristers of Cleveland's Cambrian Male Choir sang ancient Celtic hymns. New York's Welsh Women's Chorus, in scarlet capes and topper-like hats, proved that a language that looks shy on vowels need not sound unmusical...
