...subversive activities, of a criminal record in Australia-and have given Harry Bridges a clean bill of health. Ship owners have even asked the Department of Labor to deport him on general principles.

Without naming Bridges the Oregon Journal editorialized favorably on a reader's suggestion that "alien provocateurs of revolution" be run out of the country forthwith...
With large ads in 14 newspapers the Ladies' Home Journal last week called attention to an article on syphilis in its August issue entitled "We Can End This Sorrow" by Paul de Kruif & Dr. Thomas Parran Jr., Surgeon General of the U.

The birds have a fiercely protective instinct for their young and the onslaughts usually occur when the young are learning to fly. Some years ago a report in a scientific journal of an attack brought out dozens of letters from Oregon to Ontario to Texas recording similar episodes.
