*Excerpt (Writer Sinclair quoting Producer Fox): " 'A lady called on me and said she was Mrs. Rosika Schwimmer, and she asked me the following questions: ''How would you like to have your name on the front page of every newspaper of the world? How would you like to have your name discussed at every dinner table? How would you like to be the most talked-of man in the history of the world? How would you like to sell twenty times more pictures than you do now? ... I have a plan. I have chartered a boat and I call it my Peace Ship. In reality it isn't any peace ship at all. ..." I asked if she hoped to bring peace. She said: "You know we can't do that." '
