...social and economic problems that are encountered by American Negro youth today. Here is a situation where a Negro, recipient of the Purple Heart for wounds received while fighting an enemy of the U.S., returns to his home only to find bigotry on the part of state employees and fellow police cadets while pursuing a course at a state institution. This story does not end at the state police academy near Charleston. The prevailing racial attitude of the remaining twenty-two cadets, if permitted to complete the course, will most certainly be reflected in the way they carry out their...
...abrupt turnabout. The week before, Rockefeller had dictated settlement terms already rejected by city hall through the extraordinary device of proposing that the state temporarily take over the sanitation department. That seemed to leave his fellow Republican, Mayor John Lindsay, no option except surrender. Lindsay had the choice of signing a contract he had already described as a "little bit of blackmail" or watching the state move in and fulfill the same terms with city funds...
Loan's act caused little stir in Sai gon, where for two years the general has waged a ruthless, successful campaign against street terrorists.

The gang urged Watkins to perjure himself and say that Bowers had been with him at the time of the bombing. When...
Ritual Destruction. Soutine had a more difficult time finding his own style than did his fellow refugees from Russian ghetto life, who once they had arrived in Paris, turned toward cubism, like Jacques Lipchitz, or, like Chagall, romanticized the shtetl folklore with fiddlers on the roof. At the time that Lithuanian-born Soutine went to Ceret, he was still in his 20s, all but unknown. There he embarked on a series of extraordinarily dislocated mountain views, with houses and trees piled like limp wads of anthropomorphic soil...
