...party leaders from Hungary, Poland, Bulgaria and East Germany. The Communist summit, the third of its kind in four months, was the Soviet response to the onrush of reform in Czechoslovakia, and its convening was the climax of a week of ominous moves against the Czechoslovaks. It was also proof of an increasingly apparent fact: however tolerant it may seem to be in its relations with other Communist states-and in spite of considerable liberalization at home-Russia still cannot abide real dissent or genuine expressions of freedom...
BARUCH PLAN, 1946. Proposed by Bernard M. Baruch, U.S. representative on the U.N. Atomic Energy Commission, the program included international control of all atomic detonations and licensing of all other atomic activities. An international inspection team would check for violations, and its findings would be veto-proof in the Security Council. The Russians objected that inspection could not be reconciled with national security, and the plan was shelved...
...sinned against than sinning. "It's grisly," McCarthy whimpers to Cohn in one passage. "They're yelling at the cop who got the goods on the murderer. They don't give a damn about the murder-they only want to know how the cop got the proof." Like McCarthy, Roy Cohn thinks that his boss had "the goods," and on that excuse, grandly dispenses with any debate concerning such matters as due process and character assassination. That is the grisliest fact...
...withdraw from one comprehensive, Government-supported study designed to test their theory." We have documented proof that this study was scotched by the others involved when it became obvious that we intended to go through with the study which we initiated and which we had so long sought. Indeed, the primary money spent in this study was money provided through the institutes from a foundation that had already supported us for years...
...practical proof of January slow time has never been possible. How can the slowing of time be measured if all the available timing devices on earth are similarly affected by relativity? Last summer, when the regularly beeping signals of pulsars were first detected coming from outer space, Queens College Physicist Banesh Hoffmann figured that they might supply an answer. Though their source was unknown, the precisely spaced radio pulses coming from light-years away seemed to be the distant clock needed to measure earth time. In a letter to Nature, Hoffmann suggested that the pulse rate of pulsars be taken...
