...seemed like the answer to a prayer. Agitated patients who previously could not be kept quiet without undesirably heavy doses of barbiturates now rest comfortably. And, more important, they stop resisting the medical or surgical treatment that they need. After operations, they allow surgical wounds to heal...
...Scar. The merger will heal a schism dating back to 1936, when John L. Lewis provoked the A.F.L.'s expulsion of his C.I.O. The A.F.L.'s old craft unions, e.g., carpenters, teamsters, plumbers, had signally failed to organize workers in mass-production industries, steel, autos, rubber, etc. As chief of the nation's largest industrial union, the United Mine Workers, John L. was confident that he could organize the mass-production industries-and he made a spectacularly successful start. The C.I.O. spread strife and union buttons across the land with sit-down strikes and picket-line battles...

Flying over rebel territory, the investigation commission learned enough to dispose firmly of Somoza's claim that his country had nothing to do with the invasion. They...
...friends. If we think Sen. McCarthy was off-base in asserting that the Eisenhower Administration has failed to move against the Communists at home while placating them abroad, we likewise believe there were some grounds for his intemperate attitude toward the President. It is perhaps too late to heal the breach between the White House and the man who has contributed so mightily to the nation's awareness of the Communist danger. We can only deplore the latest example of political incapacity shown by the Republican leadership...
