Abstract
- This article presents the author's experience about his visit to Paris, France, and his observation regarding the French press and theater. There are fifty-one theaters now presenting plays. Paris is seething with intellectual activity. It's the one thing of which there is no shortage. Even the paper shortage, which has recently halved the newsprint allotment of every periodical in France, doesn't dim the basic fact, there are more and better politico- literary weeklies now than before 1939-all young, vigorous, independent. And everybody goes to the theater. Prices are way above pre-war level, there is no heat, even in the national theaters, there are electricity troubles and restrictions so that matinees start at five, but the intensity of projection and response is all the greater.
