Dori, a bright-eyed blonde, was duly examined by German authorities, found to be normal, was sent to live with the Damerons in their $19,000, three-bedroom home in suburban Silver Spring, Md. As Dori grew older, Dameron prepared her for a delightful surprise: she would soon, he told her one day, have a baby brother to play with...
Months before Dori joined the family, Dameron, a city fireman in nearby Washington, D.C., had applied for a boy from Maryland's Montgomery County Social Service League.

S. with its two million encyclical letter pamphlets following closely the recently distributed legal indictment of Mexico by William Dameron Guthrie, Roman Catholic President of the Association of the Bar of New York City (TIME, Dec. 13). As the Mexican Government retorts in kind, the "rights" and even the facts of the case are rapidly fading from view. Each new barrage of propaganda, from whichever side, must be weighed with...
