...obscene literature (such civil procedure differed from the criminal issues in the Roth and Alberts cases). Justice Brennan dissented because the New York injunctive process provides no trial by jury. Dissenting Justice Douglas (with Black) wrote bitterly: "Free speech is not to be regulated like diseased cattle and impure butter." Wrote dissenting Chief Justice Warren...
...bread-and-butter issue with ideological overtones, the house of delegates stood pat. Colorado physicians had asked the house to take a strong stand against physicians' working for salaries (paid by hospitals or group-care plans, including some sponsored by labor unions), and letting an administrator fix the patients' fees. With a growing number of doctors (40%, according to some estimates) now on full-or part-time salary, and with the mushrooming of medical-care plans that introduce a "third party" between the insured and his doctor, the irritation in many medical circles has become acute.

Brilliant Satirist Jean Dutourd (A Dog's Head, The Best Butter) will have little to do with any of these explanations. He refuses to see history in terms of abstract ideas, cycles or forces. He sees it in terms of men-weak or strong, good or bad. wise or stupid, to be judged by such quaint values as honor and courage...
