...most of such covers TIME has printed in recent years have been symbols of a bewildered world at mid-century - Mark III, the fabulous calculating machine (Jan. 23, 1950), the Pentagon (July 2, 1951), the Kremlin's warlike peace dove (Sept. 17, 1951), the partly human figure of the U.S. taxpayer in the wringer (March 10), and television's fixed eye (July...

Nothing more than enumeration of the many defections during that period, moreover, is necessary to convince readers that the breakdown in authority suspended Inertness, set the Russians mulling over past injustices as they...
...wife Jeannette, but not our dear Maurice. Explained Communist L'Humanite: police may be waiting to arrest him if he returns. Although the government recently threatened to lift parliamentary immunity from Communist deputies, a more plausible explanation for Thorez' continued absence, apart from health, is the Kremlin's latest policy (as evidenced in the purging of Party Militants Marty and Tillon) of playing down open Communist activities in France...
