This seemingly fruitless meeting was not, however, the beginning or the end of the President's conferences last week with and about Business. He also lunched with Bernard M. Baruch, also conferred with three utility executives, John Carpenter of Texas Power and Light, A. B. West of Nevada-California Electric, Daniel C. Green of Central & South West Utilities. But the most important conference of his week waited till one noon when two taxis pulled up at the White House spilling out as oddly-assorted a group of U.

...were a far fresher and more prepossessing crew than the aldermen they will replace.

And in a call at the Hudson River State Hospital for the insane, the President proved himself a less gloomy visitor than his own guests. He told a class of graduating nurses what had happened when he visited a similar institution at Ogdensburg...
...rising young Miners Wingfield and Nixon borrowed $1,000,000 from Banker Bernard Baruch. Last week when greying George Wingfield, heavy with his 61 years, stood once more on the brink of a successful mine, rumors were abroad in Reno that Bernard Baruch had helped again. "King George" refused to comment. Said Senator Getchell last week: "We now stand a good chance of making a million or so each...
