Macbeth (by William Shakespeare; produced by Theatre, Inc., in association with Brian Doherty), fortunately for the theater, is a great melodrama as well as a great tragedy. For in the theater the great tragedy does not easily stand forth. Shakespeare's high-placed, higher-seeking, larger-than-life criminals cannot seem tragic unless they first seem very grand, and unless Macbeth, at least, comes to seem as much haunted as hounded. Probably few real murderers have looked into such caverns of the imagination as Macbeth; the whole play, indeed, is as suffused with poetry as it is stained with...
Tuned In. Detrola's Feldman soon had another problem: his radios were piling up. So he offered to sell 9,000 tons of steel at mill price ($100.09 a ton) to Boston's Clark & White, Inc., if it would also pay $875,000 for 28,000 radios.

But it made up the loss handily - and $461,120 to boot - by selling the steel in the grey market...

American Airlines, Inc., biggest domestic carrier, was also nipped by the grounding. Though its traffic (some 1.4 billion passenger miles) and gross revenues (nearly $82 million) were the highest in company history, its losses soared to $2,962,776 (from...
Only one major domestic line, Eastern Air Lines, Inc., showed a profit; but its net of $1,259,196 was only one-quarter of the year before. Pan American Airways Corp., partly because of currency restrictions (for which it had to put aside a "very substantial reserve"), turned in a profit of $2,960,000, slightly below 1946, despite a big expansion in operations...
