The piece surveys Manhattan as a melting pot echoing many cities and cultures. It notes Noel Coward on ties between New York and London, mentions Morand and Emil Ludwig on a French mood, and references the Versailles era drama plus mobility of crowds and night life with figures like Mickey Alpert and Danny as emcees.
