...citizens who have long clung to the unhistoric legend that U. S. diplomacy has been uniformly unsuccessful and U.

...Garnerites hauled him off to breakfast: Cactus Valley grapefruit, Red River County farm eggs, Blossom Prairie smoked sausage, Garner Camp biscuits, Uvalde honey, Chuck Wagon brew. Here Jim Farley hinted he was willing to be a Vice-Presidential candidate on a Garner ticket (in Tennessee it had been Hull). As he often does, he held a press conference in a barber shop: he is the only man in the U. S. who can talk while a barber shaves his upper...
