Thank God for men like Newton Minow [May 19]. The argument used by spokesmen for the TV industry could well be used by the dope peddler: "I'm only giving them what they want."

Despite expected denials, CIA was chiefly responsible for toppling Jacobo Arbenz' Red regime in Guatemala in 1954, and privately takes credit for it. It claims to have had advance dope on the British-French-Israeli Suez invasion. It correctly predicted the Hungarian uprising in 1956, directed the U-2 flights over Russia that provided the U.S. with some of its best intelligence on Russia-until they were called off after Pilot Powers' crash...
