...newest and hottest oil scramble last week centered on what has traditionally been one of the industry's most lucrative fields of endeavor: Washington. At issue is the Nixon Administration's policy, now in the formative stage, for dealing with the flow of cheap foreign oil into the U.S. The report of a Cabinet Task Force recommending changes in the current system of restrictive import quotas is expected to land on the President's desk this week. Its contents are officially secret, but enough details have already leaked to roil the industry and start what promises...
...made it high treason to refuse the oath that accepted the King as supreme head of the Church of England, to go abroad and return as an ordained Catholic priest, or even to harbor a priest. Since no Catholic priest could be ordained in England, a steady flow of young Englishmen left the country for The Netherlands.

Next month he will return to scholarship as a visiting law professor at the University of Virginia. He also chairs an American Bar Association committee that is drafting a new code of ethics for judges in response to the Abe Fortas case. For Traynor...
...need hear his scream, for the first image established the man's plight indelibly. And by avoiding a sensational treatment, by refusing to show the man's head being branded. Mizoguchi achieves a drama of superior continuity and emotional force. He feeds the horror of the branding into the flow of the film, the continuously maintained imprisonment and oppression of the slaves, instead of interrupting that situation for one man's pain. Tracking away from the man to Sansho, he transfers our anger from the act to the man responsible for the oppression...
