Died. Walter C.

In Chicago, Howey became city editor of the Tribune at 25, editor of the Hearst Her aid-Examiner ten years later. Ignoring events outside Chicago, Editor Howey concentrated on local mayhem and scandal, paid police-switchboard operators to tip him off on the latest crime, delighted in planting fake stories in opposition newspapers. In Boston, a mellowed top Hearst executive, he took time off to develop an automatic photoengraving machine (1931), a "soundphoto" system of transmitting photographs by wire (1935).
