...cutaway and silk topper (the Queen not bothering to change) for the first of a long & indigestible series of official luncheons and dinners. This one, at the Château Frontenac, served up lobster tails, grilled breast of chicken and a Grand Marnier soufflé which neither the King nor the Queen accepted.

Europe's three leading Fascist dictators have much in common, yet each has his individuality. Neither Führer Hitler nor Duce Mussolini would have organized the religious services which Catholic Caudillo Franco held next day in the little suburban Church of Santa Barbara.

And American, having been listed on the Curb only three years, has neither the profit record nor the "seasoning" that has traditionally been required for Stock Exchange listing. But the exchange was glad to list American as the largest unit of a growing industry. American is glad to have the more active market on the Big Board, for it may be obliged to issue more shares to improve its current weak...
Though the story has little plot, neither has it the parochialism of most regional novels. And even plot addicts will agree that it tells a good story...
