...they say and how they say it, Mr. A. is a moral as well as an aesthetic coward. Dogmatically he extracts a sentence from an article--rather than troubling to restate the argument of the article in his own terms. Then he sneers. A few steps in the critical process seem to have been left out or aped...
Paper printed with the audible ink can be overprinted, creased or crumpled without affecting the sound. The process is readily adaptable to high-speed rotary presses-an asset not lost on Asahi Shimbun, the Tokyo daily of 4,000,000 circulation, which also publishes Asahi Science Magazine.

...much lower than among the rest of the military population." As chief of the Navy's submarine doctors, Captain Alvis had one answer known to any man who ever underwent pigboat training: all submariners are volunteers, and not every volunteer becomes a submariner. So scrupulous is the selection process that less than 1% leave the service after winning coveted dolphins. As a result, submariners are unusually bright and well-motivated men, "rarely in conflict with authority or each other...
