...that Elias was planning something extra to print on these presses though he already prints some 100 periodicals in all fields-newspapers, medical papers, trade papers. His range of publications includes such variety as the Daily Herald, with a 2,000,000 circulation, Weekly Illustrated, Debrett (Britain's social register), The People, Passing Show, and John Bull. Editor-in-chief of every organ put out by Odhams is John Dunbar, a Scot with a rich brogue. Elias, who has never written a newspaper story in his life, is the firm's financial spearhead. His wealth is impossible...
