...most effective instruments of Communist subversion remains the front organization. In McCarthy's heyday Communist terminology was tossed about too carelessly, and in many quarters today words and realities such as "infiltration" no longer seem entirely credible. Yet the leading fronts still reflect the reality and breadth of the Communist subversive effort. They range from pacifist groups such as the World Peace Council (headquartered in Prague) and the International Institute of Peace (Vienna) to various youth and professional outfits such as the International Union of Students and the International Association of Democratic Lawyers (Prague and Brussels). Most of these...
...Stevenson's loss is immeasurably great for the U.S. and for the U.N. The admiration and love that he was given outside our country were earned through his intellectual breadth, his human warmth and spontaneous wit. I spend more time out of the U.S. than in it on my concert tours, and I was able to point to Mr. Stevenson as an American with profound understanding of world problems, with agreement from people of all countries. He saw to the core of life with a sensitivity rare in a person in public, political life-and it was this sensitivity...

This is but one reflection of the breadth and vitality of our commitment to the fullest examination of our peoples' problems. Our organization for that purpose, in this liberal academic community, should be judged by its practical fruits. James W. Wiley...
...trying to puff a little breadth into its pages, the Advocate has gone heavily into orbit. It owes almost all of its prose to Mao Tse-tung, the adolescent Henry Miller, and the Phyllis Anderson Award drama competition. Much of its poetry comes from people outside the College. This wholesale borrowing gives the magazine a good variety of pieces, but some of it seems frivolous, and the table of contents still shows several discouraging vacuums. There is only one short story, one review, and nary a satire or a critical essay...
