...time of intolerable interest rates, business contraction, layoffs and cost-cutting of all varieties by employers large and small, it would represent the consummate foolishness to relinquish now traditional liberties associated with collective-bargaining and trade-unionism, by either organized or organizing working people. Next, every control measure (even partial ones) recommended in the months ahead, especially likely after the November elections, should be submitted to the following kind of test, using the New York Lindsay administration for illustration.

With 20 more planners, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management estimates, it can classify all Alaska...
...sweeping changes that Matisse was to make are shyly explored in those first pictures. He celebrated well-laden tables, played with the refractions of light in liquid and glass, and caressed fruits and rich surfaces. He was hypnotized by the mysterious contrast between the cool interior and the hot partial view through the open window. But it was the human form that held for him the ultimate sensuous appeal. It was the engine of his creative exploration, the subject he held fast in order, paradoxically, to range farthest...
