...reporting was at this low level. There were also responsible men like Walter Lippmann, David Lawrence, Jay Hayden. The New York Times's star-studded eight-man staff, topped by Managing Editor Edwin L. James, included Anne O'Hare McCormick, Arthur Krock, James ("Scotty") Reston. British newspapers sent 43 men; the Russians, seven; the Chinese, five...
...Ingalls' anchors to windward: ¶ Two fat contracts: 1) to convert three cargo ships into passenger-cargo liners at $4 million each for postwar service to Scandinavia under the Moore & McCormick houseflag; 2) to build three de luxe passenger liners (cost $5 million each) for the Mississippi Shipping Company Inc.'s Delta Line, to sail from Gulf ports to the East Coast of South America. ¶Son Robert, Jr. was in Brazil to drum up orders for new ships for the antique, but vital, Brazilian merchant marine. ¶ Smart and young, Ingalls' engineers were putting the finishing...

The Philadelphia Phils must struggle along without their one power...
