...declared Secretary of State Henry Lewis Stimson last week as he extended his fourth diplomatic recognition within 50 days to a revolutionary government in South America.* Practice had given him a technical perfection in dealing with these matters. Therefore he did not accord the provisional government of Provisional President Getulio Vargas in Brazil a brand-new recognition which the revolutionary change in administration warranted, but paid the new regime the higher compliment of continuing friendly relations just as if President Vargas had taken office by constitutional means...
...Transatlantic Tales. He left that position to seek another in the building of the Panama Canal but, failing that, returned obscurely to Yale for his degree. He became a newsgatherer first in New Haven, later elsewhere. But in streetcars and on commuting trains he appeased something that was gnawing within him by writing fiction, mostly pot boilers.

But much of the slackness was undoubtedly a falling off of costly private flying, even of joy-hopping, because of the Depression...
...this column defending the present policy of the Harvard Dramatic Club to produce modern plays with popular appeal states that the purpose of the club is primarily to afford the undergraduates an "opportunity to get some practical experience on the stage before large audiences." Although it is not within the province of the CRIMSON to decide the motives of this club, it is obvious that such a policy is certainly out of keeping with the laudable intentions of this organization in former years, and that, followed to its logical conclusion, such a plan can only lead to the mediocrity...
