...Foods heiress, is known in Russia for her notable philanthropies-on which she did not cut down during Depression, while she did cut down on her parties, one of which included elephants from Ringling Brothers-Barnum & Bailey Circus, and cooch dancers.† Moscow does not care about the 700 free meals daily in Manhattan's slums for which Mrs. Davies, who provided such amenities as "second helpings" and small tables at which impoverished families could eat together en famille, became known as "The Lady Bountiful of Hell's Kitchen." It is also immaterial to Bolsheviks that the American...
