...Boss had been guilty of some similar slips in an interview with Publisher William Randolph Hearst Jr., and Khrushchev was hastening to dissociate himself from the Almighty. God is John Foster Dulles' friend, he said. "Relying on God and calling his name, Dulles sends emissaries to Turkey and Jordan to kill people. The colonialists with their armies came in and brought the church and God with them. They brought the cross and the Bible to colonial countries. They left the people the religion and took all the people had." Churches are tolerated in 'the Soviet Union, said Khrushchev...

Says the publisher of a small-city Midwestern chain: "You have to be the plus paper." Through such tactics, Michigan's middlesized dailies have pared more than 100,000 Sunday circulation from Hearst's Detroit Times.

What saved the reja from the scrap heap was the omnivorous taste of the late William Randolph Hearst-who once bought a whole monastery in Spain, shipped it stone by stone to the U.S. But even Hearst did not have room to house the cathedral screen. For more than 25 years it remained in packing boxes in a Bronx warehouse. Eventually, Manhattan's Metropolitan Museum, which has in its towering Medieval Sculpture Hall a room made to order for the 60,000-lb. screen, began negotiating to buy it.
