...lower than [Lord] Kemsley" (the Tory publisher of four London Sunday papers, one London daily and 37 other papers, with a combined circulation of 10,000,000). In characteristically milder fashion, the Manchester Guardian also took Publisher Beaverbrook to task for "the Evening Standard's mare's nest about [Strachey]." Last week, a new attack on the Beaver came from within his own journalistic family. James Cameron, 39, who has averaged 100,000 miles a year as chief roving correspondent for Beaverbrook's Daily Express, quit his well-paid (?3,000 a year) job. In a letter...

Why? Storekeeper William H. Zuber summed it up: "Too many eggs in one basket." With 40-50% of its total income coming from refrigerator sales, Amana feared that it might go broke if the bottom dropped out of the refrigerator market.
