...part-purchase of the Potter Palmer castle-mansion (TIME, Nov. 19) and other Lake Shore Drive parcels. But Vincent Bendix him self is perhaps most "at home" when entertaining tycoons, on the 38th floor of the Bankers' Building on Chicago's Clark Street. He sits at one end of a large, glass-topped table, around which are nine straight-backed chairs. There are five windows,, softly curtained, and a thick soft carpet. Along one entire wall is hung a tapestry which reaches from ceiling to floor. Behind the tapestry, in a kind of recess, is a large...

For, according to these figures, the Ford profit and loss surplus† had dwindled from $654,851,061 at the end of 1927 to a mere $582,629,563 at the end of 1928, thus indicating a year's loss of $72,221,498-not counting, of course, what Ford profits might have been if Model T could have been kept going.

Motive power came from a small outboard motor affixed to the floating cabin, as to the rear end of a rowboat or canoe. Pertinent utility of the outboard motor: the seaplane can toddle to its dock without the great draft and ungainly power of its flying engine...
...every country. ... It is in these circumstances that we entered upon that period of Exhaustion that has been described as Peace." Mr. Churchill, British Minister of War during "the" war, describes it in terms of exasperation, cynicism, vitriolic indignation. Though he was at the Peace Conference only toward the end, for the discussion of Soviet Russia, his opinion of the whole fiasco is nonetheless violent. He spits fire upon Wilson Biographer Ray Stannard Baker's smugness: "Mr. Baker detracts from the vindication of his hero by the absurd scenario picture which he has chosen to paint. Wilson...
