...glad to see your Jan. 5 cover showing Charles de Gaulle as "Man of the Year." No other person has or will change history as he did during 1958. France will soon boost her economy again owing to the new change in the value of the franc. The entire world owes your man of the year a great deal...
...Whatever Happened to the Veterans?" [Jan. 5]: an excellent article. If I hadn't been a G.I., I wouldn't be a Jesuit now. Our seminaries were crowded with vets after World War II. Last year saw our 100th vet ordained a priest; 1959 will see another 100 ordained...

Rothlisberger's letter [Jan. 5] concerning my coverage of the U.S. This is what they said recently in tributes published in the United Kingdom and elsewhere: Lord Brabazon of Tara: "I look forward to Don Iddon. He loves America, but won't have us bullied. Parliament should vote him a million pounds as a gesture for what he has done towards Anglo-American relations." Lord Boothby: "I know of no more vivid pictures of the kaleidoscopic American scene than those painted by Don Iddon." Sir Alan Herbert...
