Luxuriously outfitted, the Manhattan boasts many an unusual feature on its eight decks. Among them: a full-size tennis court, twelve sunlit dog kennels on deck, all fresh water baths and showers, conditioned air in all cabins and public rooms, no berths on the ship, beds only. Competing with European cabin-class liners, the minimum first-cabin rate for the voyage to England...
...museum as well as municipal offices. Designed by the Allied Architects Association, the structure suggests a coronet on the city's brow. In it are twelve kinds of marble and $5,000,000 of taxpayers' money, a far advance beyond Denver's first City Hall, a floorless log cabin on the treeless plain of 1860.

Close behind the Ambassadress came the Mar con, a cabin cruiser used in the Lindbergh baby search, loaded to the gunwales with newshawks and cameramen...
Among wild rumors in Zlin last week was one that "the Bat'a warehouses are piled from cellar to roof with 25,000,000 pairs of unsaleable shoes." Contrary to his usual custom Tycoon Bat'a was not in the luxurious cabin of his plane when it took off but perched up beside the pilot. A story flew through Prague that the pilot, when found dead, had a bullet through his head. Even if this were true no coroner of Zlin could be expected to confirm a fact so damaging to the House...
