...Disregard of concerned groups is even more acute at today's Faculty meeting. In the first place, the meeting was called and will probably be presided over by President Kirk or Vice President Truman. The striking students have requested admission and a chance to present their position to the Faculty. Their request has been denied.

Gomulka, whose wife is Jewish, promised exit visas to Jews who want to move to Israel and en dorsed the majority of Polish Jews as loyal builders of socialism. In cavalier disregard of deepening unrest among intellectuals, however, he blasted liberal Writers Union members, whose balking at censorship had first rallied students, and at liberal professors, whom he labeled "small-time politicians with science degrees." He also announced that more than 1,200 "rabble-rousers and disoriented youth" had been arrested during...
