Aviators Mattern and Griffin Reach Berlin in Record Nonstop Flight
The 1932 report notes James Mattern and Bennett Griffin as the first aviators to fly nonstop from the American continent to Berlin, beating Post and Gatty into the record by crossing the Atlantic in under 19 hours, with Berlin triumphantly ahead of them.

The piece also comments on livestock price gains aiding farmers and hints at a stabilizing agricultural outlook, then contrasts British and American juries in a separate courtroom anecdote.
