...neighbors, the ex-dictator, his wife and four daughters will have Mark Honeywell of the Minneapolis Honeywells to the south; to the north will be Frank Katzentine, owner of Radio Station WKAT, whose turned-down application for Miami's TV Channel Ten raised a storm during the House investigation of the Federal Communications Commission. Up the street are S. S. Kresge (5 & 10? stores) and Paul Hexter (son-in-law of car-rental Tycoon John Hertz). The Dodges knew little of the new owner; Mrs. Dodge said she met him once and found him "charming." When she heard...
...Christ had been put on television to preach the Sermon on the Mount," says British Writer (and former Punch Editor) Malcolm Muggeridge, "viewers would either have switched on to another channel, or contented themselves with remarking that the speaker had an interesting face." Yet Christ is currently much in evidence on British TV. Most startling example: a Passion play in which Christ is a young man with an Elvis Presley haircut, scuffed loafers and worn jeans. The Virgin Mary, plump and nondescript, was the British version of anybody's mum. Pontius Pilate was suave and courteously detached...
Until Pakistan solves her burgeoning internal problems, the sense of vassalage will probably remain. Since the constant fear of India forces Pakistan-in spite of U.S. military aid-to channel 70% of its budget into defense, little is left for development programs.

For lack of foreign exchange to buy raw materials and spare parts, the nation's mills now operate at only 50% capacity...
Against Rome, Luther denied the church's administration over God's grace -either to grant it or withhold it. Not church, he held, but scripture is the true channel of grace-the Word and man's will lead to faith, and faith in Jesus Christ will redeem man from his sins. So sure did he feel of "justification by faith" that in his translation of the Bible he dared to insert the word "alone"' on his own authority. Against what he saw as a privileged caste of priests, he maintained "the priesthood of all believers...
Last week it developed that a good deal depended on whose morality was involved. Republican Wolverton began expounding his ethical ideas to Witness Paul Porter, chairman of the FCC during the Roosevelt and Truman Administrations, now counsel for a losing applicant for Miami's Channel 10. That was what canny Lawyer Porter had been waiting for. Smiling owlishly, he reached into a briefcase, produced a letter from a Congressman to the FCC requesting special action on a constituent's application for TV Channel 17 in Camden, N.J. Date of letter: March 30, 1953. Sender of letter: Representative Wolverton...
