...President vigorously denied that the U.S. was "shooting from the hip" in enunciating its disarmament policy. But he gave the impression, as the Christian Science Monitor's Richard L. Strout pointed out, of "a conscientious man, eager to do what is in humanity's highest interest, reaffirming his pledge to go ahead with a cessation of atomic tests, but at the same time weighing the possible loss to mankind of losing the peaceful knowledge which such tests might bring." It was an impression of confusion, too, but it left no confusion about Ike's basic...

After last week's decisions the Christian Science Monitor headlined across three columns: SUPREME COURT PICKS ROAD OF LIBERALISM, and it seemed clearly apparent that the new court was following Earl Warren's signposts.

When told they were about to be visited by the chief of the Emergency Cabinet, Colonel Husein answered: "We'll listen politely, but continue on our chosen path." Both Husein and Simbolon said that they felt Sukarno was on the decline, indicated quite openly that they would prefer to see him replaced...
Some pundits immediately pounced on these two assertions in a manner that prompted the Christian Science Monitor to observe that "many of the news reports and comments on the book kidnaped fragments from the text and lugged them off to some private chopping block where they were enthusiastically minced." At the Secretary of State's news conference, reporters promptly threw the book at Dulles...
