Less impressive than Middleton's recitative were: a Scottish Suite by Adolph Deutsch, Whiteman's short, bespectacled chief arranger; the now familiar cacophonies of Ferde Grofé's Tabloid; Deutsch's Essay on Waltzes wherein the hybrid orchestra pieced together remnants of Beethoven, Gounod, Delibes, Tchaikovsky, George Evans, Chopin, Franz Lehar, Oscar Strauss and Johann Strauss. A blues clarinetist leaped into a long, screaming, upward run; Roy Bargy followed with incredibly nimble piano work and splashed hot chords into the Rhapsody in Blue. Beaming, Paul Whiteman about-faced, took many bows, and the All-American jazz...
...completed until 1938. Top deck has six lanes, will permit 10,000,000 cars to cross annually. Experts predict that tolls will amortize the bridge's cost in 20 years.

The News has generally front-paged a boondoggle story, exuded confidence in Republican victory, given Republican...
Through his three Manhattan loud-speakers-morning American (circulation: 320,000), evening Journal (631,000), tabloid Mirror (555,000)-and his 25 other mouthpieces throughout the land, shrill William Randolph Hearst has dinned his hatred of the New Deal day in, day out, furnished Franklin Roosevelt with his noisiest opposition.
