...outstanding antitrust record, based not on penalizing growth but on protecting the right of all to grow. ¶ Attacked Communists with such legal skill that Communist Party Boss William Z. Foster was moved to say: "The attack by the Government upon the party has been directly responsible for the bulk of its losses." ¶Launched a many-pronged assault on civil rights restrictions. In his proposed civil rights program Herbert Brownell is moving eyes open, fists up, into his toughest fight...
...necessity and depth of this "pure form" in the art of the nude is clearly underlined. Perhaps the central theme of the work is an insistence that the nude is one of the most austere problems of design. The bulk of his analysis argues the continuity of this almost abstract design in the nude throughout Western art. He finds echoes of the design of the influencial classical works--Knidian Aphrodite, Laocoon, Apollo Belvedere, et al.--repeated and reworked, reasserting themselves after generations or even centuries. The most striking example of this that he gives is a comparison of a nude...
...this is little compared to what U.S. industry could do. Only 300 major U.S. corporations are active abroad, and U.S. investment has concentrated mostly in Canada, Latin America and Western Europe. Largely overlooked are the underdeveloped nations that now receive the bulk of U.S. foreign aid. A major reason is that many U.S. companies are not aware of the opportunities abroad. The Government itself employs fewer than ten full-time officials at the job of stimulating foreign investment, leaves most of the task to overworked Government personnel abroad.

The bulk of the movement in the performance consists of ridiculous and histrionic stridings from one side of the huge, empty stage to the other. And any merits or subtleties that the performance might have were carefully obscured by glaring and hideous lighting, featuring in the main inane and gratuitious follow spots...
...power diodes and capacitors, some as small as a grain of wheat, it opened up a vast new field of miniature components for better machines. Made out of solid materials, the new components were less susceptible to heat, dust and vibration, had but a fraction of the weight and bulk of old-fashioned tubes. Equally important, science also learned to replace the familiar maze of soldered wires with new printed and etched circuits as flat as playing cards...
