...Frank Morgan, this offspring of the Administration's left-wing is beginning to cause no small commotion over its plans and projects. All the doughty adherents of decentralization in industry are rallying around with drum and fife, eager to explore the possibilities of small units of production based on partial or complete use of the cheap electricity which the series of gigantic dams and power plants now constructed, under construction, or merely planned, are designed to furnish to the Valley. Blueprints have been laid out for the creation of model, attractive towns for the workers to be employed. Schemes...
...whole family, old and young. We value your publication not only for its brilliant readability, correctness and broad outlook on national and world affairs but for its impartial selection and statement of all significant news. . . . Tonight we were disappointed to see TIME used as a bait for a very partial and one-sided discussion in an after-program.

More pathetic, welfare and city workers will become political slaves...

To hope, however, that it may be forced to undertake at least a partial reformation if the colleges raise a sufficiently loud clamor, and in the case of the Eastern colleges which can afford to do so, apply some real pressure, is not too sanguine an expectation. Harvard, for many years the great innovator of the college world, should take the lead in guiding or forcing the secondary schools...
