Since the fair opened May 25, an average of 100,000 persons came daily by bus, subway, taxi, foot and bicycle to see samples of the widest range of products. Last year there were only about 50,000 who took in the fair each day. Exhibits by TJ. S. manufacturers included tractors and other agricultural equipment, electrical products, plastics, whiskey and gin, and fruit juice. From Belgium came toys, ceramics andleather goods; from , motorcycles, air- plane motors and machines. There were perfumes and cosmetics, news- papers and radios, pressure cookers and stoves, stamp collections and cameras, and just about anything else you would want to see. One section was devoted to nothing but new inventions, and fair officials said they were having a tough time trying to decide whom to award prizes to because so many of the inventions were such marked improvements. For the visitors who perferred riding the nearly one-mile length of the fair grounds to walking, there were small electric busses running at frequent intervals. For the thirsty there were several points at which beverages could be bought.
