...regret that you paid attention to the case of Father Edward Schillebeeckx [Oct. 4]. Change and renewal in the church is irrevocably necessary to make it acceptable in our days. This renewal can't be stopped by compiling a dossier on Schillebeeckx, or by calling our church a revolutionary avantgarde. Schillebeeckx didn't betray us. Our world is nearly exploding, the fuse burns, and we shall have to do our utmost...
...Vatican has apparently been compiling a dossier on Schillebeeckx since 1961, when he wrote a pastoral letter, signed by the Dutch bishops, that proposed decentralization of authority in the church. Matters came to a head last July, when Monsignor Angelo Felici, the papal internuncio to The Netherlands, suggested to Schillebeeckx that he might help rehabilitate himself by introducing the Pope's birth control encyclical on Dutch television.

The new Bond lacks much of the comic-book charm that connected so well when the camp craze...
...same, TIME correspondents from Albany, Ga., to Youngstown, Ohio, from Pompano Beach, Fla., to Pittsburg, Calif., compiled a depressing dossier of destruction: 5,117 fires, 1,928 homes and shops wrecked or ransacked, 23,987 arrests throughout the nation, and $39,544,205 in damage to property (see BUSINESS).* In all, 72,800 Army and National Guard troops were called to duty. Yet riot-connected deaths totaled only 43-no more than in Detroit alone last summer...
