THE NEW YORK TIMES, April 9, 1935

* WPA created - Franklin D. Roosevelt
* Work Progress Administration
* Publisher Adolph Ochs death


The front page has a one column heading: "ROOSEVELT SIGNS WORK RELIEF BILL; BEGINS ALLOCATING" with subheads.
Also a nice front report and photo on the death of Adolph S. Ochs, the publisher of the New York Times. Much more inside with full page pictorial and mourning borders on pages 20 & 21. Loads of text.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 44 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.
