...When Communist pamphlets were confiscated at Harvard two weeks ago, "The New York Times" stated triumphantly that authorities were beginning a quiet and efficient drive against "red" groups in the University. The story turned out to be almost completely false. Just a few days later when unimpeachable sources reported that a new "ism"-- the Yale Imperialist Association--had long been burrowing beneath the Yale Campus, "The Times" refused to touch it. Only the courageous "Yale News" dared print that undergraduates "tossed off their vodka, smashed their glasses against the wall, and pledged their White Russian honor to the Romanoffs...
When the U. S. Communist Party's general secretary and No. 1 front man, crook-mouthed Earl Browder, so testified to the Dies Committee last September, he put himself in danger of a second Federal imprisonment.

There were indications that he knew he had a bull by the tail. The word "Jew" appeared less often in his broadcasts, although it continued to sprinkle the pages of Social Justice, of which Father Coughlin pointed...
...professional slickness, Christmas Holiday describes the shattering Paris holiday of a safe-&-sane young Englishman. Shatterers are a strip-tease pick up, who tells him about her marriage to a man who murdered for sport; a boyhood friend who is grooming himself to head the OGPU of a future Communist England...
