Report repeated from p. 494 of the August 1 Bulletin reads as follows: ""Like Mrs. Searwood's Secret Weapon (1953) this continues the crazy-dazy theme that is embroidered with crisp commentary in an articulate argument against the madness of current civilization. With wine its currency, the little Duchy of Grand Fenwick is in financial straits and decides to wage war on the U.S. so it can be rehabilitated when it loses. But a turnabout- with a Q bomb- lets the Duchy rule the world so that big nations are forced to mingle peacefully.
