On This Day
On this day we got our first good look at a closed fracture. Hitler failed to take over and was later charged with treason, and in the U.S. a four-term President was elected for the first time. Locally, our editor was commenting on the challenges that come with immigration, politicians who were buying the news so they could publish the “truth”, and perils of imposing a high license fee on entertainment.
