...Hamilton spoke at a banquet in honor of New Jersey's seven Republican Representatives and Senatorial Candidate W. Warren Barbour. Mr. Hamilton's thesis: "In recent months there has been a tremendous flight of votes from the Democratic to the Republican Party"; and unless the Republicans succeed in winning 1938 Congressional elections, those elections might be the party's last fight.

On the contrary, "Gold Is Where You Find It," which will succeed "The Buccaneer" on Sunday, carries on as one of the finest pictures of its kind.
