Rise and fall of business failures and capitalism defense
A broad analysis cites Dun and Bradstreet showing 1950 had 34 failures per 10 000 companies, with 1932 the worst at 154. The piece argues American capitalism rewards risk takers, critiques RFCs and government subsidies, and notes ongoing licensing and market patterns in retail food and liquor trades. It weaves in political commentary on social security and the dangers of guaranteed security. It also reports local city bids for a police car contract, the track bid dispute, and a Massachusetts training plan for firemen. It ends with quotes on communism and music careers.

New York Tax Probe Exposes Racketeers and Bribery
In a Special Tax Fraud Drive led by Gen John B Dunlap, federal investigators peel back layers of underworld activity tied to bookmaking and wire services. A physiotherapist listed as occupation, a former police chief convicted of tax evasion, and a pool hall owner under scrutiny illustrate the reach of audits. A commission broker with illicit wagers and a buried safe holding over 100000 in small bills underline penalties and prosecutions likely to follow.
