In October the nation's money stock grew at an average annual rate estimated at 12%.

That creates a nasty dilemma that will probably persist for some time...

During the hullabaloo that accompanied the Lady Chatterley obscenity trial in 1959, it was fashionable to say that the book was not dirty, just pretentious. But Lawrence was attempting "an adjustment in consciousness to the basic physical realities." A tall order that, and one that greatly appealed to the author's radical temperament. Unfortunately, it led him into portentous language and situations, and gives an almost hysterical fervor to his advocacy of relaxed frankness between men and women...
