Page 5 has one column headings: "TRUMAN DECLARES PHILIPPINES FREE" "Proclamation on Independence Read at Special Observance at Washington Quarters" with complete text of the proclamation by President Harry Truman. (see) Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 30 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Very nice condition.
