What grist for the Protestant scandalmongers' mill! Everything that American Catholicism has stood for-separation of church and state, freedom of religion, a non-temporal clergy-is endangered by the stupid, archaic and "dog-in-the-manger" mouthings of these modern-day Savonarolas. This sort of thing is precisely what makes Protestants turn green at the gills and red in the face...
...Mediterranean and an up-from-the-wards politician who made good. A dapper, well-tailored gladhander, Democrat Notte has been so busy with his own long-range campaign for the governorship that his primary opponent accused him of neglecting his duties as lieutenant governor. A run-of-the-mill liberal, Notte is rated as a political bantamweight by neutrals and many Democrats...

Idaho Governor Robert Smylie approved state welfare for the striking families over management objections...

The dormant Shoshone County Anti-Communist Association awakened, charged that the union was Communist-led. The Mine & Mill workers were ousted from the old C.I.O. in 1950 for Communist leanings, but Mine & Mill Negotiator James L. Daugherty now denies the charge. Why then had he refused to sign a non-Communist affidavit in 1947 as then required by the Taft-Hartley Law? Because, explained Daugherty, he had been...
