This week Acheson was off for Europe again by plane to start another Digest foreign edition. As far as the project itself was concerned, the hazards this time were even greater. The Digest plans to print 500,000 German-language copies a month in Munich, sell them in the American and British zones, starting next February. As there is little paper in the occupied zones, and as no money from those zones may be spent outside them, Acheson plans to print another German-language edition of 100,000 copies for sale in Switzerland.

After two days of book orders, large holes appear in the course lists required by popular fields such as Government and Economics.

While some course instructors completed their book needs as early as last July, others are still making changes and undergraduates must now sweat out three or four...
Olivia Robertson is a well-bred young Irishwoman who has done social work in an improved Dublin slum. Like many other social workers who make copy of their experiences, Author Robertson sometimes commits to print anecdotes and adventures that probably sounded fine at the time but, in type, only seem strained and amateurish, like a genteel effort to make a smutty-faced child blow its nose. The savor of the subject, however, often rises above her polite intentions...
