What lay behind the appointment was President Hoover's desire to make Washington "a model city," to answer repeated Congressional charges that liquor flowed unchecked, that narcotics were peddled under the shadow of the Capitol, that gambling joints and brothels ran wide open, all because the D.

...years' work with the A. P. He closely tagged Herbert Hoover from his Kansas City nomination to his entry into the White House. A hush-hush reporter with the manner of always having a big story up his sleeve, Newsman West has worked so long in the shadow of the G. O.

The amous March of the Toys is one of the most satisfying ensemble pieces that has appeared in Boston in a long time. If one is in a whimsical, Alice in Wonder and mood...
