...great publishing House of Patterson-McCormick, and of no other, it could be said with certainty last week that it was about to help elect a President of the U. S. Reason: Partner Joseph Medill Patterson, as boss of the House's New York News (circulation: 1,600,000), has given Franklin Roosevelt the wholehearted support of the nation's biggest newspaper; Partner Robert Rutherford McCormick, as boss of the House's Chicago Tribune (circulation: 784,000), has made the nation's second biggest newspaper its most rabid anti-Roosevelt sheet.

Like many another adolescent in New York's restricted areas, he then achieved a vicarious escape mechanism by raising and training homing pigeons, in partner ship with his Italian neighbor, Charles Ferrara.
