INTERNATIONAL: Nobelmen

Two weary troopers in the thin platoons of Peace are haggard, hang-jowled “Uncle Arthur” Henderson, the down-&-out former British Labor Leader who is President of the down-&-out Disarmament Conference and small, pucker-browed Sir Norman Angell, an eminent pacifist lecturer who in 1929 attempted to clean up by inventing The Money Game.*

Last week, perhaps because of the extreme difficulty of finding potent champions of peace today, prophetic Sir Norman and pathetic Mr. Henderson were awarded respectively the Nobel Peace Prizes for 1933 and 1934—about $40,000 to each.

*Played with a special deck of 100 cards, each suit representing an industry, it was supposed to combine education in market technique with many of the charms of poker.
