Eisenhowever is cited by the Committee as having stated that none of our experts were certain that Ho Ohi Minh would have won a general election. It's to bad they didn't cite a Southeast Asian; I don't think they could have found one to cite. I peat last year in Southeast Asia, is India, Thailand, Formosa, the Philippines. Everywhere I heard that Ho had once been regarded, and rightfully so, as the George Washington to Indochina. He had led his people against the imperialist French and, with General Giap, had waged a brilliant, tightly-organized campaign against...

During a World War II discussion about the loss to mankind in bomb-gutted libraries, Lonergan argued that the important things were in people's minds, not in books. In answer, someone cited Shakespeare and got out a copy to cite lines at random. In each case, Lonergan identified the quotation, imperturbably reeled off the rest of the passage...

They cite rising crime rates, more auto accidents and higher costs for repairs and medical care; repairing a new Chevrolet's dented rear fender, which cost $16.85 twenty years ago, now costs $149.75. Dishonest and fraudulent claims have risen steadily, and juries seem as quick to give out generous awards as state insurance commissions are slow to allow rate increases. As if all these troubles were not enough, the industry has contributed to its dilemma by engaging in a ruinous rate...
