Because the figures did not jibe, "this was the fault of the spetsy, not of the Council of Labor and Defense" and "not even of the responsible men in charge of Glavtop—the Main Fuels Committee."
Что цифры не сошлись - "это вина спецов, а не Совета Труда и Обороны", даже "и не ответственных руководителей Главтопа".

Mr. Page's earlier opinion of the British was not unlike that of many of our diplomats who are now so fond of the Geneva jibe that "England expects every Swede to do her duty."
Что же касается прежнего мнения Пэджа об Англии, то оно приблизительно совпадало с мнением многих американских дипломатов, которые охотно повторяют женевскую шутку: «Англия ожидает, что каждый швед будет выполнять свой долг по отношению к ней».

And he was again the most worthless, the most contemptible of men, a common laughing-stock, a motley fool, a damned idiot, an object for jibes--to a deacon!...
И он опять ничтожнейший, презреннейший из людей, общее посмешище, шут гороховый, зарезанный дурак, предмет насмешки – для дьякона!!
And since then relations between Dark Ones and Light Ones had consisted of a rather halfhearted standoff—more jibes and taunts than genuine enmity.
И отношения Темных и Светлых с тех пор пребывают в вялом противостоянии, скорее на уровне подначек и насмешек, чем серьезной неприязни.
