Dashing into a bomb shelter at his Hanoi hotel during an alert, Salisbury bumped into four visiting U.S. women who belong to such organizations as the National Committee for a Sane Nuclear Policy and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. Due next week are several clergymen, including U.S. Pacifist A. J. Muste, who has led antiwar rallies in New York, Washington and Saigon. Though the ladies and the preachers were traveling without clearance from the State Department, a total of 57 Americans-47 of them newsmen-have validated passports to visit the North.

...Visser 't Hooft, one major change in ecclesiastical outlook created by the World Council is that Protestants no longer justify their disunity by saying that they all nonetheless belong to the "invisible church"-the concept of a band of Christian brothers united by baptism and faith but no outward ties. Today, he says, "all churches are aware that a unity that cannot be grasped is just as unbiblical as a faith that is kept hidden.

...hormones. A possible cause in some cases is that a boy was born when his mother wanted a girl, and she treated him as a girl. By adulthood, says Dr. Benjamin, the crossover of emotion and thought may be so deeply ingrained that "true transsexuals feel that they belong to the other sex, they want to be and function as members of the opposite sex, not only to appear as such." Psychiatric treatment, including long-continued analysis, has proved virtually worthless to patients who do not want to be changed emotionally, leading Dr. Benjamin to conclude: "Since the mind...
