...light through one of our windows. The dog has gallantly bitten two of them, but they have retaliated by reporting him to the police. We are thinking of resorting to stink bombs! We have five people living with us, and are getting our family life organized on a communist basis. Daddy hates every minute of it, but mother has risen to the occasion like an old war horse. After all, she dates from the Franco-Prussian War, so this is nothing new to her. By the way, why isn't America in this scrap? It was Roosevelt who pushed...

Ignoring Wendell Willkie, Chairman Dies applied himself to the wobbly reputation of C. I. O.'s National Maritime Union. A burly, tattooed, gap-toothed ex-Communist and ousted union official, William C. McCuistion, testified that 28 N. M. U. officers (including President Joe Curran) were Communists, that 93% of the 40,000 members were deluded nonCommunists. Witness McCuistion's mother, crinkled Mrs. Dolly Crawford, declared that Joe Curran once told her just how Communists would take over the U. S. by passive infiltration into unions, Federal offices, etc. On the same day that Mrs. Crawford testified, Joe Curran...

S., turned in the raincheck, came out from behind their false whiskers, and announced that they had just been fooling: they want their revolution after all. The new Communist name for revolution is "quick transition...

...party, said he, returning to Joseph Stalin's old theme: that the U. S. is ripe for collapse and revolutionary restitution. Of his more recent declarations (that socialism is not now practicable for the capitalistic U. S.) Earl Browder made no mention last week. Said he, abandoning Communist support of Roosevelt's foreign and domestic policies...

Obviously--as Mr. Greene admits--there is no legalism preventing an appearance by Browder. Less obviously, good taste does not prevent it, since Browder would appear in his capacity as a Communist spokesman rather than in his role as a passport violator. Granted that he has broken some highly technical regulations laid down by the United States government, his integrity or capability as leader of the Communist party are not impugned by this fact. He remains the most articulate exponent of one view on War and Neutrality, and as such, he should be heard by Harvard students...
