Not so bad so far. Hardened cigar smoker though he is. Mr John Nance Garner, Vice President of the United States, has his fill tobacco smoke when he celebrated his 69th birthday in Washington. He was besieged by cameramen, all of whom expected to find Vice President Garner puffing at his favourite weed. After a time, the obliging Vice President began to feel a bit queer, even though the celebrations had not yet really started!. Photo shows, Vice President John Nance Garner still at the 'enjoyable' stage of his marathon smoke. 29 November 1937
