Where it approaches or exceeds 50%, the end can hardly be imagined. Yet Marshall will not accept a theoretical solution that the only chance for desegregation in Mississippi and other parts of the Deep South is a mass migration of Negroes that will drastically change population percentages (see map). Perhaps he remembers his ancestor from the Congo, who would not leave the state even for his manumission...

...chronic dissensions. Just as Karl Marx left his carbuncular anger to his heirs, so Freud's brilliant but obstinate, vain and hypersensitive character seems to have shaped the psychoanalytic movement. There were squabbles, rivalries, accusations. In 1910 began a series of famed apostasies of disciples who refused to accept Freud's theories unconditionally. First Adler deserted, then Stekel, and finally "Crown Prince" Carl Gustav Jung himself. Biographer Jones suggests that the dissidents were those who still felt "obliged to perpetuate the rebelliousness of childhood...

Faure asked the conservatives in his right-center coalition to accept the "double dismissal plan" he had worked out with Morocco's leaders (TIME, Sept. 5). The hardest man to convince was Faure's own Foreign Minister, Antoine Pinay, whose right-wing Independents are strongly influenced by the pro-colon lobby in the French National Assembly. As the long angry...

...purpose of the course is to prepare future ministers to detect signs of incipient mental illness in situations that might be inaccessible to psychiatrists, e.g., neurotic "religious experiences" or morbid guilt feelings. On such matters many parishioners might more readily accept the advice of a clergyman than a doctor. But beyond that, the fields of psychology and religion are more and more converging; clergymen have realized that they must, in part, compete with the psychiatrists in matters of personal guidance...
