...almost everything but news in most of the French press. France-Soir pushed swiftly to France's top circulation (about 600,000 daily).

During spare minutes he likes to scan his stock of magazines. Indeed, only an overriding sense of nationality, ranks in his makeup with this semiliterate but deadly earnest intellectual streak.
