...American was also making news last fortnight far in the North. It announced that its summer service from Boston to Halifax would this year be extended, if mail contracts are forthcoming, to turbulent St. Johns, Newfoundland. Cooperating with Transamerican Airlines Corp. (operating between Cleveland and Chicago), Pan American will push surveys and preliminary research this summer in a drive to span the Atlantic by way of Greenland, Iceland, the Faeroes and Shetland Islands to England and the Continent.

It had a dressing room with racks for 100 shirts, 100 neckties, a fancy barroom reached by an aluminum staircase. His modernistic bedroom held a big bed equipped with push buttons for books, chromatic lights, music from one of his eight radios. Bill Paley lived there a while, then moved into a conventional bedroom. He was too active, too aggressive to enjoy lying in fancy beds. But he has a radio in his Hispano-Suiza, always keeps one going at home...
