...Rosenbergs were arrested in 1950 and charged with having been ring-leaders of a Soviet spying organization which during the Second World War succeeded in pilfering what was then referred to as "the secret of the atomic bomb." They were tried, convicted, and sentenced to death. The case turned on two key witnesses. One was David Greenglass, Ethel Rosenberg's brother, who cooperated with the government and sent his sister and brother-in-law to the electric chair in return for a reduced sentence. The other was Harry Gold, a self-confessed spy who also traded his testimony...

...frameup concocted by the F.B.I.? Or, if indeed espionage did take place, was it really of such consequence that the death penalty should even have been considered? The answer to the second question was stated succinctly by scientist Phillip Morrison who holds a co-patent on the atomic bomb, on the television program The Unquiet Death of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg: "There is no secret to the atomic bomb." Clearly the Rosenbergs were executed for invalid reasons in the sense that it was simply impossible to attribute Soviet possession of the atomic bomb to their actions, as Judge Kaufman...

His head slumped in disappointment until Levy Byrd, representing the whole team, glided by and whacked him on the pads to show him that the squad still supported...

Amnesty should come only when the American people have insured that presidents' men will no longer bug the opposition's headquarters, burgle psychiatrists' offices, offer judges bribes, or bomb villages filled with innocent people and throw soldiers fighting for their country's liberation from helicopters. Restoring justice may be a radical and painful process, but it should start now. Friday's indictments should be only the beginning...

...Defense Marketing Service Market Intelligence Report of March, 1973, said that the guava bomb and certain other Air Force munitions contracts would bring in a total of $10 million for Honeywell in fiscal 1974. DMS is a semi-official organization serving this country's weapons business, and is considered a reliable source by those in the industry. While it is obviously in Honeywell's interest to create the impression that it no longer makes anti-personnel weapons, I can think of no reason why DMS should lie about Honeywell's contracts. Honeywell does not exactly have a record of being...
