...message on poverty last week, there is little reason to believe that Moynihan has brought the Administration over to his side on these issues. On the other hand, Moynihan's conservative analysis of the community action programs--an analysis which amounts, in reality, to little more than a claim that middle-class outside-agitators have been making trouble by stirring up the normally docile black folk in the ghettos--contains the seeds of an intellectually serviceable ideology of repression. It is but a short step from Maximum Feasible Misunderstanding to the proposition that government should avoid doing anything that might...
...however, save the old HUAC from the clutches of the law. Now pending before the Chicago Court of Appeals is the first serious challenge to the constitutionality of HUAC. The case stems out of Chicago hearings in 1965 conducted by the Committee in which several prominent citizens claim they were slandered.

Warner-Lambert executives claim that the multimillion-dollar Pristeen print media campaign is bigger than that for any other new toiletry product in 1969. Pris-teen's chief competitor is FDS (for Feminine Deodorant Spray), a similar product manufactured by suburban Chicago's Alberto-Culver Co., whose advertising is slightly less explicit. Warner...
...guard and mutters, "I thought you were a Jap." Marvin's unshaven, malarial soldier is a credible reflection of his own war experiences; he lends substance to a part with few lines and less motivation. Unfortunately, he was not content to get by with soul. Marvin likes to claim credit for the non-ending of the film. The non-meaning goes with...
