...astounded and distressed to see those letters in the last issue charging TIME with an anti-Semitic bias (Nov. 27). I am a Jew of quite highly developed sensitiveness, yet never once in all my cover-to-cover reading of your magazine have I discovered anything in the least offensive. On the contrary, touching particularly the developments in Germany you have been so trenchant and frank that I've wondered why TIME has not been barred in the Reich.

Several years ago, while the Graduate Establishment of Business Administration was being built across the Charles, two undergraduates, having passed French 2, and mellowed by their celebrations, solved the problem. The Morgan Business Library was still a mess of foundations and holes, Feeling that a library of any sort should be built not only of bricks, mortar, gilt domes, but also of books, they did their part.
