This issue of the science fiction pulp magazine contains three serials in progress and four complete stories. The lead serial "The Lost City" (Part II of three) and "Measuring a Meridian" (Part II of three) continue across multiple issues. Complete stories include Abner I. Gelula's "Peace Weapons," Walter Kalefey's "Subjugating the Earth" (illustrated on the cover), and stories titled "Hastings — 1066," and "The Choice." A poem, "The Science Pacifist," appears alongside the fiction. The editorial by editor T. O'Conor Sloane discusses mathematical problems—specifically the extraction of numerical roots and a classical Greek geometric problem concerning constructing cubes of proportional volume. The issue includes a science questionnaire section and typical period advertisements for mail-order courses, patent services, and consumer products.
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
