...University's public relations, this is the hard way out. It will add to the arsenal of the University's opponents: They will howl that there is now a man on the Faculty who will not say he is not a Communist. But for the legal and moral foundations of the tenure rules, it is a necessity. It will be a black day for American education when this University is frightened enough to break the contract of a man so far innocent in order to placate a more cowardly public.

Icy winds howl along the snowswept plains behind the mountain passes to discourage the traveler. Rugged barriers of snow and ice rise as high as 24,000 ft. Dense semitropical growth clogs the lower valleys. Fever haunts the forests, making them uninhabitable to all except endlessly prowling tigers and rhinos...
