...months, Michigan's Democratic Governor Gerhard Mennen Williams kept the state's Democratic and Republican leaders on tenterhooks. Because the vote-getting governor would not say whether he planned to run for re-election or for a seat in the U.S. Senate, Democrats did not know where to aim, and Republicans could not decide which way to shoot. Last week "Soapy" Williams' politically profitable (for Williams) game came...
...CRIMSON editorial lumps Prof. Lattimore with such figures as Gerhard Eisler, Earl Browder, and Gerald L. K. smith. Yet Lattimore is at most a moderate liberal, as borne out by his address. He does not even support , as I believe a good many Harvard students do, the recognition of Red China as the de facto regime of that nation.

These men were the brains of the party, but the popular leader, the man often mistaken for the head of the party, was General Otto-Ernst Remer. Remer's claim to popularity was his part in crushing the July 20th, 1944 plot by high German officers to assassinate Hitler, take over the government, and seek peace. Remer, then in charge of the Berlin SS troops, refused to turn the city over to the plotters, and after speaking over...
