Today -100: October 22, 1922: Of radios, days, fish, and fairies

Henry  Ford plans to establish 400 radio stations throughout the US, so he can disseminate his anti-Semitic opinions, I’m assuming.

San Francisco electrician Charles Buckley, who killed a 4-year-old girl while driving drunk, offers her parents his own 5-year-old girl. They decline the offer.

Supreme Court Justice William R. Day (a Roosevelt appointee) will resign in order to be umpire (I guess that’s the official term) on the German-American claims commission.

Headline of the Day -100:  

They only find out it was the king and two princesses who rescued them after giving them the fish.

A review of Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Coming of the Fairies. Dude still believes in the obviously fake Cottingley Fairies photos, years later.
