Last summer President Philip Albright Small Franklin sold the corporation's White Star Line, getting about $36,500,000 (TIME, May 17, 1926). That sum approximates the amount of bonds which I. M.

Such a success that William Randolph Hearst engaged Mr. Payne to edit his New York tabloid, the Daily Mirror. The Mirror jumped amazingly in circulation. Last week Philip A. Payne jumped from Old Orchard...
William Randolph Hearst published in his Mirror: "I will gladly give $25,000 to the captain and the crew of the ship which finds them." He also published telegrams through which he said, "I did my best to prevent him [Philip Payne] from going." Also, a telegram sent to Editor Payne prior to the flight: "I will not assume responsibility, but will proceed only if the Government will assume authority and responsibility."
