Baby Race
Inventor Guglielmo Marconi talks with Mussolini about his latest creation—a device that can target planes and tanks, shutting down their engines. In Canada, a big baby race is happening with a half-million dollar prize waiting to be won. A socialist politician has just been elected to run Alberta, Canada, and he wants to give every person in the province twenty-five dollars each month. Meanwhile, a woman and her young daughter, who is twelve years old, are found and saved after being lost in the hot, dry Death Valley desert.
