...Jewish Daily Forward and belongs to the new American Labor Party (TIME, Nov. 15), but three of his 51 years were spent in Tsarist prisons. Another Fusion minority member elected by the American Labor Party in The Bronx was bull-necked Michael J. Quill, who once blew up Black-&-Tan lorries in Ireland and still carries a bullet in his left hip. Having worked in the U.

...sharp-eyed scout for Leicester Galleries wandered into the Galeries Zak in Paris and saw six pictures by a young German girl, just purchased by Mme Zak. Painted in monotones of grey, tan and pink, in a style heavily reminiscent of Marie Laurencin and spiced with Degas and Renoir, were pictures in a musicomedy adaptation of 1900 costumes: drinking at cafes, riding on merry-go-rounds, many another simplified scene.

Meanwhile Union had missed two industrial revolutions in its business: 1) from easily-torn sulphite bags to sulphate bags (made of tough tan papers called "Kraft" by the trade); 2) from expensive northern spruce to cheap southern pine for paper pulp. After the War when every competitor was moving south to use cheap slash pine, Union still sat in a sleepy, War-fattened lethargy.
