Hope has arrived as a great many people thought it would--not in expensive bindery or elaborate engraving. But on poor paper, mimeographed, adless, and bearing the unmistakable smell of ink. Voices goes on sale today, and if you can't always make out the words because of the publishing process, it's at least worth the effort...
...sight of that morning's New York Times at the breakfast table. Each day during the Republican National Convention the Times sped across the continent through new facsimile equipment, using a TV microwave relay circuit. By getting out 20,000 daily free copies of a special, ten-page, adless edition, the Times demonstrated that, technically at least, a truly national U.S. newspaper is within reach...
...offices in the Sankei Kaikan. These quarters are in sharp contrast to our first home in bombed-out postwar Tokyo. Hard on the heels of General MacArthur, TIME moved into the Japanese capital, set up shop in backrooms above the Kyo-bunkwan bookstore and published its pony-size, adless Far Eastern edition.

Its 112 partisan pages are a light...

The buyer was Young & Rubicam President Raymond Rubicam, who changed it into a trade weekly which went after paid circulation and advertising in earnest. Gradually he turned Tide over to its employees, who sold some of their shares to Manhattan's Modern Industry magazine two years ago. But the competition from robust Printers' Ink (circ. 23,793) and Advertising Age (circ. 24,201) was tough to buck...
