...Neill's lofty prestige of the '20s and '30s, Moon does read better than The Iceman Cometh. Iceman hacked at its one point-that man cannot live without illusions-with an icepick.

...states of Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin, which TIME lists in the hard-core group of Republican states, all went to Truman. These states have a liberal sprinkling of Democratic governors, Senators and Representatives. Is it then safe to conclude, as does TIME, that these states are part of the Republican hard core?

To the I.P.R. protest that most writing in the institute's periodicals was nonCommunist, the committee answered: "NonCommunist or 'neutral writing' plus . . . pro-Communist writing means, whatever the exact percentages, a net pro-Communist effect...
