This yarn, repeated at a businessmen's luncheon early this year, put an idea in the heads of three officials of the Catholic War Veterans. They reasoned that the last place anyone would look for Communists would be within the Roman Catholic fold.* They decided that they had better start looking...
...conservative U.S. papers the sultry little tale from Havana got what it deserved: decent burial on an inside page, below the fold. In the tabloids, and such dailies as are tabloids under the skin, the life, loves and death of one John Lester Mee got top billing as the season's spiciest mixture of sin, sex, masochism and mon-keyshine justice.

Transcribed shows had Big Radio-NBC and CBS-worried. Big Radio's power has always rested chiefly on its near-monopoly of famous entertainers. Last fall, Bing Crosby fled the fold.

One convert was the Thomist philosopher, Jacques Maritain. In 1905, Maritain, then a God-seeking philosophy student, and his young wife, Raïssa, visited Léon Bloy for the first time. They found in him the spiritual inspiration they had been looking...
