...much a world forum of individual countries that we reactionary isolationists object to as the sanctimonious, double-talking hypocrisy of one-world socialism...
...first time, the African National Congress, the South African Indian Congress and the South African Colored People's Organization (all Communist infiltrated) sent delegates to sit on the same platform. More important, they sat alongside the Congress of Democrats, a clump of European fellow travelers whose object is to convert the non-white majority of South Africans to Communism...
...novel collaboration of astronomers and archaeologists. Miller's avocation is to look for Indian remains in Arizona, and he was immediately interested when a survey party from the Museum of Northern Arizona found two Indian rock drawings, each showing the crescent moon and near it a large round object. Crescents are rare in Indian drawings, and the round objects were hard to explain...
Miller discussed the drawings at his observatory, and visiting Cosmographer Fred Hoyle of Cambridge University, England had a bright idea. Maybe, suggested Hoyle, the large object in the drawings is the supernova* of A.D. 1054, the enormously brilliant "new" star that outshone all the other stars in the sky and was plainly visible in daytime. Europe was too backward in astronomy in 1054 to pay much scientific attention to the event, but Chinese and Japanese astronomers recorded it accurately. The supernova appeared over China on the morning of July 4, 1054, and its position was close to the bright star...
...seen in Arizona. The answer came out right. The moon was a crescent, as drawn. In northern Arizona it would have risen shortly before dawn on July 5th, and the supernova would have been close to it. The sight must have been striking; the supernova was probably the brightest object, other than the sun, ever to be seen by historic...
