...signed proclamations defining combat areas (see p. 16), and banning belligerent submarines from U. S. ports. To Senator Key Pittman went one pen. To Representative Sol Bloom went another. A third-an expensive one that memento-loving Sol Bloom had bought just for the ceremony-the President decided to keep for himself. Off-stage a newsman won a dollar.
