Note the report in column 6: "New Russo-Jap Clash Reported" |
Also note the report at bottom right: "Stalin's Revenge Sweet, Dictator Quoted In Book" |
(The quote; "To choose one's victim, to prepare one's plan's [sic] minutely, to stake an implacable vengeance and then go to bed... There is nothing sweeter in the world." So wrote Josef Stalin in his book "Stalin's Kampf." It is interesting to note thet the publisher, Howell, Soskin and Company, promised to send the royalities to Stalin, but it is also noted that Adolf Hitler had not yet received any royalities from his book "Mein Kampf" which had been published, with authorization, in the United States. Copies of Mein Kampf sold well at the time, and I guess have done for many years.) |
