...they have a food crisis and many of them haven't shoes but their devotion is lifting them up to a different plane." Unlike dogmatic Russian Communists who are positive that there is no future life, Son Corliss has recently set down his speculations in Issues of Immortality (Holt, $1.50, 198 pp.).
