The MARCH OF TIME Prepared by the Editors of TIME The Weekly Newsmagazine (Continued from Page 1) had a new kind of evidence on which the "leggers" were convicted—a unique liquor sold wholesale at $7 for a five gallon tin, retail at a nickel a pony. According to the thoroughgoing New York Times, it was colored with orange peel and possessed "an aromatic bouquet with a heavier underlying odor like that of tobacco steeped in water." The Times went on to add that it "created in the drinker a sensation of self-centered power, while the images of external things buckled and broke." Its title: King Kong Whiskey. RESCUED HEROES— LONDON — Many a lean British cavalry officer and many a ruddy fox-hunting squire exploded apoplectically last week as they thumbed through the "Illustrated London News" and saw a series of pictures of old, crippled, starved horses almost too decrepit to stand, all of whom had done gallant War-time service. Most pitiable were two photographs of a famished, broken-kneed old black mare which had once seen proud service with the 11th Hussars, a bay cavalry gelding with "all his joints gone and very lame in the near-fore and near-hind." They were two survivors of 80,000 British army horses and mules sold by the British government to Belgium in 1919, put to work in mines, hitched to produce-wagons and canal barges. Coming on these pictures broken at Brunete the Loyalist offensive launched "to raise the siege of Madrid," Rebel President Francisco Franco resumed his offensive against Santander, started another drive against Loyalist positions 100 miles east of Madrid, and then turned to statecraft forming a cabinet of seven ministers, five of them generals. To Spaniards the name of General Martinez Anido as minister of interior, in charge of police, meant that any last vestige of possible compromise with Spain's communists, anarchists and socialists had been deliberately wiped out by the Rightists. Martinez Anido was vice-premier under the late Spanish Dictator Don Miguel de Rivera, suppressed with hundreds of executions the proletarian uprising in Bareclona when he was captain-general of Catalonia. At Pamplona two Frenchmen were arraigned before a Rebel court martial in what was called the first actual trial on charges of spreading disease germs in warfare. The court noted their confession that they had been paid $3,750, inspected tubes found on them said to contain typhoid and sleeping-sickness germs and viruses, sentenced them to death. But President Franco delayed the Frenchmen's execution "pending an international inquiry." With Spain's civil war in its 13th month, neither side had yet used poison gas; but of the current outlook in Spain Correspondent William F. McDermott of North American newspaper Alliance last week wrote: Again this year horse fair in Pomona Sept. 17 to gation of running and hail the 575,000 visitors to the preparations have been no afternoon and on three n meet the richest Most plausible were two photographs of a famished, broken-kneed old black mare which had once seen proud service with the 11th Hussars, a bay cavalry golding with "all his joints gone and very lame in the near-fore and near-hind." They were two survivors of 80,000 British army horses and mules sold by the British government to Belgium in 1919, put to work in mines, hitched to produce-wagons and canal-barges. Coming on these pictures most Britons were more convinced than ever that "no damned Froggie knows how to treat a horse." Year ago Britain's Our Dumb Friends' league—a be-kind-to animals organization founded in 1897 and supported by voluntary contributions launched a campaign to rescue from the continent any of the horses that had survived. The league had little difficulty in tracing them because each bears an identifiable army mark. Moreover, a noted Belgian animal lover, the Dowager Duchess De Croy, provided the league with a list of all old horses in Belgium. When ever the league finds a British warhorse has enough money on hand, they buy it for about $100, take it to the league' stables in Brussels, put the horse to grass for perhaps the first time in 18 years, later send it to Britain to be "pensioned off" in some country paddock. By last week 25 had been rescued out of an estimated 600 survivors throughout France and Belgium. Many of the 25 were blind, many carried scars of the battlefield, all were in miserable shape. Long-starved, the horses had to be prevented from disastrous overeating, were kept down to a daily seven pounds of hay, a weekly gallon of beer. Most gratifying to the league officers was the rapid way in which the horses recalled their English. After only a few weeks with British grooms, the horses would be obeying orders they had not heard since the war. COAT OF ARMS— LONDON—Heralds' college in London announced last week that new Earl Baldwin, formerly prime minister, had chosen for his coat of arms the Latin motto "With the help of my God I leap over the wall," had further chosen as the supporters of his arm not the lion and unicorn but two white owls, symbolic of wisdom. STRIKES AND SETTLEMENTS— NEW YORK — In the middle of the feature "Kid Galahad," at the early show at Manhattan's little Greenwich theatre one evening last week, the lights came on suddenly, the picture faded from the screen and the sound equipment boomed: "Attention, please, ladies and gentlemen. This is the motion picture operator speaking to you from the booth. There is no trouble with the equipment and no cause for alarm. I am using this means to protest to you against the inhuman working conditions in this theatre. I work seven days a week, eleven and one-half hours a day, have no vacations, no rest. I eat in the booth where the heat is sometimes unbearable. The management refuses to listen. Having locked themselves in their projection boots with food and water for a sit-down, the two operators thus announced their strike by playing on the sound recording equipment a record prepared in advance, an idea originated by the business agent of Local 306 of the Motion Picture Machine Operators union (A. F. of L.). Two other operators did the same thing in another Manhattan theatre (run by the same organization) the same night. The mands were met by 6 o'clock following morning. In Detroit a temporary station was issued last week running the Waiters, Waitress Cooks union from "packing man," Fitzgerald & Sinks eat Packing consists of buying fee, occupying all the chair restaurant.

READ FOR SALE—CHICAGO — For two years the United States has been an import-of wheat, and for three years more that it sold practically no meat abroad because the domestic price was artificially high. Today the world is short of meat and the United States has more to sell than any other country. In some parts of the wheat belt there had been drought, in others black rust, in still others grass-hoppers. But this year's harvest was the United States' fittest in six long years—a billion dollar crop. After satisfying its own needs of some 650,000,000 bushels and adding 35,000,000 bushels to its depleted carry-over reserve, the United States would have perhaps 165,000,000 bushels to toss into the breadbaskets of Europe. With United States wheat at $1.20 per bushel, the cheapest export wheat in the world, the first wheat boats sailed last week from Chicago. "TO SEZAR"—NEW YORK—A precept which black, benign Major F. (Father) Divine, Harlem cultist, enjoins his followers is that all stolen goods should be returned to their rightful owners, all old debts be paid to creditors. Since Father Divine attained a following many a United States merchant, especially in the south, has testified that many a black man's long-forgotten debt has indeed been liquidated. In Harlem last week one Farmaca Real, a Divine follower, took pen and paper laboriously composed a letter. She had once purchased goods on credit in Pittsfield, Mass, could no longer recall the merchant's name. So to all the shopkeepers of that city Farmaca Real wrote asking that one Sezar get in touch with her. Said she: Four States Plan Reunion August 21 Former residents of four states will unite Saturday, August 21, in Sycamore Grove park, Los Angeles, for a "Dixie" picnic. An invitation has been extended to every one from Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and Louisiana to attend. Each state will have its own section. A union program with music and brief addresses will follow the basket dinner hour, it was announced. Let us stop cringing. A naturalist tells us that all animals meant to be preyed upon have eyes in the side of the head. "I am asking you to reply so as to pay my former bill. I want to pay it as Father Divine says pay to Sezar what belongs to Sezar and to God what belongs to God." (Said Jesus Christ to the Pharisees: "Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's."—Matthew 22:21).
