...Destroy This Letter." It was this collection of Klein-Dodd letters that disaffected aides had removed, copied and fed to Columnists Drew Pearson and Jack Anderson. Their series of articles accusing the Senator led to the investigation (TIME, July 1). One abrasive letter from Klein in November 1963 upbraided the Senator for not rising to his defense during an investigation of foreign lobbying by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, of which Dodd is a member. "What are you afraid of?" demanded Klein. "Do you consider friendship a one-way street...
...bacterial chromatogram, Scientists Alexander and Gould use a pure strain of bacteria, allow them to grow for several hours in a nutrient solution, then extract the metabolic products that have been excreted. These are injected into a chromatograph, where they are converted by heat into gaseous form and fed into a column containing a packing material and an organic liquid such as Carbowax-a chemical that has a different attraction for the molecules of each chemical compound. Thus every compound that passes through the column is slowed to a degree...
...When Alexander and Gould have substantially increased their collection of such bacteria identifications, they hope to store it in a computer, creating a central file similar to the FBI's store of human fingerprints in Washington. Then, when a chromatogram of unidentified bacteria is prepared, it can be fed into the computer, matched electronically with the appropriate chromatogram in the computer's memory, and quickly identified. By using the combination of bacterial fingerprints and computers, says Gould, "detection and identification, which now take days or weeks by classical methods, could be done in hours...
...Dissent. Koningsberger found the people looking well fed and clothed. Shops seemed well stocked; there was no "atmosphere of scarcity," despite contradictory evidence of rationed rice and cloth. No "blue ants slaving away" -except for the familiar "drag coolies" hauling inhuman loads of coal and pig iron. No beggars anywhere, no flies even on manure heaps. The countryside appeared to be the immemorial land of the peasant-few motor highways, trucks or tractors but plenty of human feet treadling water wheels. Soldiers with guns nowhere to be seen. In short, "the daily comings and goings of the people look terribly...
...Roman soldier had pierced the side of the crucified Christ, the Crusaders, half-starved and crazed with religious fanaticism, swept out of the city and routed the Turks. Afterward, Bohemond of Taranto ordered the severed heads of captured Turks roasted on spits, "encouraging the rumor that the Prankish barons fed on human flesh," and so spread terror among the demoralized infidels. Within a year, the Crusaders had carved out for themselves feudal principalities in Syria and Palestine...
