...Blues today. While young white guitar players rave about Clapton and Bloomfield, in turn, (as well as Buddy Guy and Albert King) they all praise the master, B. B. King. B. B. King is near fifty and he has paid his dues. He has been playing the Blues professionally longer than Bloomfield and Clapton have been alive, doing one night stands which took him from Jacksonville, Fla., to Austin, Texas, to Los Angeles, Calif., and back again in a month without a day of rest, along dusty roads, in men's rooms for coloreds,' and segregated restaurants and hotels, singing...

From voyages into inner time and space, Laing says, men can be reborn, no longer alienated, but capable of a new kind of ego-functioning in which the ego is "the servant of the divine, no longer its betrayer."

The reality principle, no longer a performance principle, will be fundamentally altered and will lose its repressive aspects. In the non-repressive civilization envisioned by Marcuse, "the subjective and objective world, man and nature are harmonized...

Even then Congress would still fuss over Communists, fellow travelers, campus agitators, Yippies, and the like. Such detective work, though, would no longer have the single-minded backing of a permanent standing committee. As a standing committee, HISC gets free printing and the right to hire over fifty investigators and consultants from a considerable budget. In 1966 it asked for and received $425,000. In 1967 liberals rallied enough strength to whittle that down to $350,000. Last year's figure edged back up to $375,000. In the 89th Congress, HUAC finished with the fourth highest appropriations...
