Kaltenborn. . .brings one of the keenest analytical minds in modern jour- nalism to the interpretation of the motion picture news of 1938. . . Of this review, he says: 'Each scene is a moving, dramatic page from the vital history of 1938. We see war raging in China, and across the world in Spain. We see Austria occupied by Nazi troopers. We see the world's peace saved, and Czechoslovakia's independence sacrificed across the conference table by the two prime ministers and the two dic- tators who are the Big Four of Europe. We take you behind the scenes with the stage managers of the World's destiny and see the map changed over night. But all is not war and strife. The surge of events which made the past year one of the most thrilling chapters in history, ends on the note of peace. For the three Americas look toward Lima, Peru where hope and in- spiration for peace in the New World emerge out of the Pan-American Confer- ence.'

It was omitted from the new edition because it was felt that its value would probably not be permanent. It is, therefore listed in this quarterly supplement and will be re- considered for the 1940 annual volume "The King and Queen of England visit France; New York and San Francisco build their World's Fairs; the Hurricane strikes the East; Hughes and Corrigan fly the ocean; the map of Europe undergoes momentous changes. These are the usual headlines shown in this special Paramount News Release. But what was the inner meaning of these events for America and for Americans? This film takes you into a typical American home and lets you hear Mr. Average American give his con- cept of the year's news. He is addressing his son. He tells him that the biggest news of the year is the great white light that has fallen upon the Constitution of the United States and upon the American Bill of Rights. He tells the boy how re- pression of speech and repression of press have thrown into high contrast our own freedom of speech and freedom of the press. He describes the ravages abroad of intolerance—and points out our American freedom in all types of worship." Distribu- tor Jh-sh-c 910 DESCRIPTION AND TRAVEL Mediterranean basin.
