The MARCH OF TIME Prepared by the Editors of TIME The Weekly Newsmagazine TUAL DISRESPECT— KANSAS CITY, Missouri — In Constitution Day address three days ago, Franklin Delano Roosevelt irked the legal profession when he reaffirmed his low opinion of "legalistic interpretation" of the constitution, described as a "layman's document, not a lawyer's contract." At their annual convention in Kansas City a week, 3000 members of the American Bar association there derived special pleasure from series of political speeches and solutions setting the legal position and the New Deal on an ideal footing of mutual disrespect. Welcoming the lawyers to Kansas City, Missouri's onetime democratic Senator James A. Declared: "In this strange period in our history, the body litter is chained to the political operating table and the dreamers dreams and the seers of visions permitted at will to cut and obey and slash the helpless victim." Two days later Nebraska's El-New Deal Senator Edward R. Krue appealed to the legal profession's self-pity: "There was a time when the banker was favorable 'whipping boy.' The welks of lash upon the . . . bank-may now be permitted to heal the lawyer takes his place with bared back at the post." Focusing a large share of itsention on new Supreme Court stice Hugo L. Black, the American Bar association decided not investigate "the latest appointee to the supreme court," instead adopted a resolution to petition the senate to hold public trial. DIVO'S DRIVE— NEW YORK — Setting forth from Buenos Aires in his 1926 model-T Ford sedan 33 months ago, slender, wasp-waisted Miguel Divo of Argentina rattled west toward Santiago, Chile. There turning north, he traversed 13 countries, jolted through 1935, 1936 and most of 1937 before he landed last week at the front door of New York's Hotel Pennsylvanian. Of his 22,000-mile route, one-third is mountain, desert and jungle. Divo gaily took the first 400 miles without "incident," made a pilgrimage to the great bronze statue of the Saviour 13,000 feet above the sea in the Andes, bashed in his radiator crossing Atacama desert, and buried a companion who died of thirst. As he hacked his way a yard at a time through jungles of Peru and Ecuador, he and two new partners were nearly eaten alive by mosquitoes; when they ran out of food Divo shot monkeys. Through the 300 "inpenetrable" miles north from Columbia to the Panama canal, guided only by compass, Divo claims to have hacked, ferried, pontooned, even to have taken his Ford to pieces, transported it by mule-back. In the forests of Darien "under a small cross" a second companion was buried. In Costa Rica's Colorado river a raft sank and for 15 days his car and equipment were at the bottom of the river. Native who had never seen an automobile wanted to feed his Ford, tried to tether it at night. In more literate, moneyed centers, THE END OF PATRICIA MAGUIRE— CHICAGO — After lying in a fifteentuple for five years, seven months and 12 days, Patricia Maguire of Chicago last week died, a victim of sleeping sickness. In a trice pathologists of Northwestern university took out her lungs to verify the pneumonia which was the immediate cause of her death; an ovary to examine the tumor which mysteriously developed a few weeks ago, caused her to waste away, reduced her resistance to pneumonia; and her strange, ineffective brain. Then Patricia Maguire was buried with a fresh corsage of gardenias and the crystal necklace her constant flame, jewelry salesman James Burns, had given her. Patricia's mother had kept a meticulous diary of her daughter's 2,096 days in bed; Dr. Eugene Fagan Traut counted on being asked to publish a sequel to the clinical record he has kept of the girl's stupor. The front part of Patricia Maguire's brain with which she normally would have done her thinking was withered. A mid-part was scarred by an old inflammation. Both conditions almost totally destroyed her ability to move her head, eyes, jaws, tongue, shoulders,hips, legs,knees. The withered frontal lobe proved most interesting to Northwestern's pathologists; for it was not directly affected by the attack of encephalitis lethargica which rendered the young woman inert. Dean Irving Samuel Cutter of Northwestern offered this explanation: "The first stages of encephalitis are sleep, paralyzing of certain cranial nerves, general weakness and acute inflammation chiefly affecting the grey matter in the mid-brain region. The secondary effects are inflammation of the capillaries and lymph spaces." 'whipping boy.' The welks of the lash upon the . . . bank may now be permitted to heal the lawyer takes his place with bared back at the post." Focusing a large share of itsention on new Supreme Court justice Hugo L. Black, the American Bar association decided not investigate "the latest appointee to the supreme court," instead adopted a resolution to petition the senate to hold public earings on all future judicial appointments. Dead set against the resident's court plan and fearful his efforts to revive it, the association also voted: to appoint special commission of seven embers to report (for a referendum) further efforts to enlarge the supreme court; to devote itself maintaining "an independent and untrammeled judiciary." BIGGER'S CENSUS— WASHINGTON — Although it was struggled for eight years to solve the problem of unemployment, not until last summer did congress act to find out how many people in the United States are unemployed. In the rush of legislation at its session's end, congress passed a bill which called or an unemployment census, appropriated $5,000,000, and left it to Franklin Delano Roosevelt to ask the man for the job—49-year-old "liberal Republican" president John D. Biggers, of Libey-Owens-Ford Glass Co., whose enlightened labor policies" brought him to presidential noce. Biggers had by last week completed plans for his census. In November, mailcarriers will distribute to all the 31,000,000 United states homes cards containing 14 questions to be answered by anyone partly or wholly unemployed. Besides name, age, sex, race the answers to the questions will indicate when the recipient worked last, what at, how much work he did in the previous week and year whom he supports, whether anyone else in his family is unemployed. Franklin Roosevelt will give a "fireside" broadcast urging all unemployed to fill out the cards, and the post office department will return them to Washington, to be sorted by census bureau clerks. Biggers' only paid aides will be a staff of six clerks in his department of commerce office. Last late for mailing back cards will be November 20. Preliminary compass, Divo claims to have hacked, fecried, pontooned, even to have taken his Ford to pieces, transported it by mule-back. In the forests of Darien "under a small cross" a second companion was buried. In Costa Rica's Colorado river a raft sank and for 15 days his car and equipment were at the bottom of the river. Native who had never seen an automobile wanted to feed his Ford, tried to tether it at night. In more literate, moneyed centers, Miguel Divo—a magician on the side—raised funds by such stunts as glass eating. Joined by his wife, Emma, in Managua, Nicaragua, Divo had a comparatively smooth run from Central America, rolled into Manhattan with the same six tires with which he had started. Teridered a banquet by the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, which supplied most of his gas and oil, Divo obligingly unscrewed a light bulb from the chandelier, smashed it to bits, put the glass in his mouth, took a draught of water. Of his hardships and late companions, Divvo plausely spoke: "I knew we would not die because at the mountain top I laid my hands on the feet of the Christ of the Andes for a blessing." NEW HOTTLES— NEW YORK — Uncorked by many a United States college and university last week was their annual assortment of educational potions in new or odd bottles. Three institutions offered courses in international relations under the dramatic label of WAR! At New York university's general education division, "The Next War," was to be illustrated by maps of the theatre of the coming conflict, by snapshots and movies of European militar; forces taken by Professor Charles Hodges. At Hobart college motion pictures of the world war were to be shown in a course on "War and Peace." In "The Problem of War" Wesleyan university promised to prescribe "practical effective steps for preventing war." At Bryn Mawr college, students of French and German were housed in new buildings where they will be permitted to speak English only one half-hour out of the 24. At Columbia's teachers college, students marched into a classroom to talk about the "Weather." On Boston university's menu was listed a tidbit pathologists, for it was not directly affected by the attack of encephalitis lethargic which rendered the young woman inert. Dean Irving Samuel Cutter of Northwestern offered this explanation: "The first stages of encephalitis are sleep, paralyzing of certain cranial nerves, general weakness and acute inflammation chiefly affecting the grey matter in the mid-brain region. The secondary effects are inflammation of the capillaries and lymph spaces in the brain proper, filling the spaces with cell debris and shutting off the brain's nourishment. This causes an atrophy, or sinking and withering." DEER-HUNTING DENTIST— MIDLAND, Michigan—Because Michigan towns have this year suffered 12 successful bank robberies, the town of Midland fearfully deputized several businessmen to bear arms against such an emergency. Then, one morning last week two gunmen entered Midland's Chemical State Savings bank. As the cashier ran to the president's aid, the bandits began to fire, wounded both, ran out into the street, jumped into a car. Plunk! A Ufflet struck the driver's arm, the car crashed. The bandits leaped out, looked around for their enemy, shot an innocent truck driver who was passing, started to run up the street. Plunk! Another bullet struck one of them in the shoulder. Plunk! One of the bandits fell dead; the other ran on, was captured half-mile away. The bandits never saw who fired at them. At the open window of his office over the bank, wearing his white coat, stood Dentist. Frank L. Hardy with a smoking rifle in his hands. He likes to hunt deer, had scored five hits, out of six shots. CONTEST— HARROW, Ontario—At the annual Dominion of Canada egglaying contest in Harrow last week, George A. Winton's hen suddenly stopped laying, began growing wattles and a comb, before the contest was over had turned into a rooster. FLOATING CAMERAMAN— OLD ORCHARD BEACH, Maine — At Old Orchard Beach, Paramount News Photographer Albert Mingalone last week hung from a cluster of 30 hydrogen- whom he supports, whether anyone else in his family is unemployed. Franklin Roosevelt will live a "fireside" broadcast urging all unemployed to fill out the cards, and the post office department will return them to Washington, to be sorted by census bureau clerks. Biggers' only paid aides will be a staff of six clerks in his department of commerce office. Last late for mailing back cards will be November 20. Preliminary results will be ready December 1, will be checked by noor-to-door counts in sample cities to establish the average percentage of error. Complete tabulation should be available on or before March 1, when many workers unemployed in November may be getting spring jobs. WAR RISKS— LONDON — Lloyd's and all other consequential British underwriters last week stopped writing "war risk" insurance policies not only for China and Spain but for anywhere on earth. In a joint manifesto the British insurers said they think they have made "a substantial contribution to the cause of world peace," explained that property owners unable to take out war risk policies will be forced to start "working for peace." Concluded the underwriters: "The wide radius of action of modern aircraft has made the area of destruction almost illimitable. Incendiary bombs have increased enormously the potential damage to property. Writing of war risk insurance on land has become no more than a gamble, which plays no part in insurance, where rates are based on scientific application of the law of averages as ascertained through experience." LEYAN university promised to prescribe "practical effective steps for preventing war." At Bryn Mawr college, students of French and German were housed in new buildings where they will be permitted to speak English only one half-hour out of the 24. At Columbia's teachers college, students marched into a classroom to talk about the "Weather." On Boston university's menu was listed a tidbit called "Private Life of the Greeks." Norwich university announced that with an endowment of nearly $250,000 it would give next year the first college course in the world on "Air Traffic Regulations and Air Transportation." Manhattan's new school of social research advertised a course called "Compensating Gymnastics for Sedentaries." DISCUSSION— COLUMBIA, Missouri — University of Missouri Students Albert Waters and Jack Kilpatrick were last week having a theological discussion. Said Student Waters: "I feel a sudden urge to commune with my Maker." Student Kilpatrick handed him a revolver in fun, stuck his fingers in his ears, was terrified when Student Waters pumped a bullet through his own brain.

Locker-Boy Thomas Bowman jumped for the trailing fragment of anchor line, stumbled when he was about to grab it. As Aerialist Mingalone rose speedily, so did the alarm of his fellow Cameraman Philip Coolidge and his friend, Rev James J. Mullen, Old Orchard priest, golfer, aviation enthusiast and expert skeetshooter who was watching the experiment. Mingalone drifted away so rapidly that his ground crew had no time to use a rifle brought along to puncture the balloons in an emergency. With Mingalone disappearing in a rain cloud at 2,500 ft., frantic Cameraman Coolidge and Father Mullen piled into their auto, dashed toward Saco where Mingalone seemed to be heading. Two miles from the takeoff their hopes rose as they sighted Balloonist Mingalone seudding along 600 feet above. Rifleman Mullen jumped from the car, chanced a shot, punctured two of the spheres. To the great relief of the rescue squad, Mingalone settled earthward; but in an attempt to climb to a ring five feet above his head to saw free some bags, dropped his 12-lb. Bell & Howell camera. Loss of this ballast hobbled him upward and onward again. Twelve miles from the unlucky take-off, thoroughly frightened Father Mullen and Cameraman Coolidge caught up with the even more frightened victim, still struggling with his parachute harness as he bounded rapidly along 200 feet in the air. Father Mullen sprinted into a cornfield, kneeled, plunked another balloon. That was all the exhausted, dripping Mingalone needed to bring him to earth. "Maybe I couldn't have kissed Father Mullen!" Mingalone wheezed. "All I could think of was 'the curtains.'" Approximately 125,000 feet of floor area will be devoted to Foods and Beverages at the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition on Treasure Island in San Francisco Bay. Demonstration of Heaters Planned Orange county citrus and avocado growers will have an opportunity October 28 to witness a special demonstration on the handling, operating and management of various types of orchard heaters.
