Even worse effects will probably be felt in the realm of international trade. Said the Times: "[The bill] represents the very antithesis of the policy which the nations of the world, under the leadership of the United States, laid down at London and have been seeking to implement at Geneva." With the U.S. stand on wool (TIME, June 2) already blocking agreement at Geneva, the restrictive sugar bill was more evidence that the U.S. was all in favor of freeing world trade-as long as it did not disturb any Congressman's constituents...

Once upon a time, Brer B'ar was induced to take Brer Rabbit's place in a snare by the promise that he would thus make $1 a minute. Last week, U.S. corporations had Brer B'ar outclassed-and their earnings had almost reached the realm of fable. They were making $33,000 a minute. The Department of Commerce estimated that for the first six months, profits were at an annual rate of $29 billion before taxes, up $8 billion from last year and $4.5 billion above 1943's previous alltime high.

It declared that the U.S. and Soviet Russia must learn to live together in one world, must "learn that in their realm of thought all opposing ideas can exist-must learn that or repeat 'Your death is my life.' " The conflict between Russia and the West is not primarily ideological, but material, said L'Osservatore, and to be understood in terms of security. "Russia . . . fought not for the Communist...

When Bartlett Jere Whiting '25 romped through his final English 1 lecture last week, the survey course seemed ready to fall into the realm of joint instruction. For during the five years that "Jerry" Whiting held away in the University's basic course in English literature, mixed classes were out of the question. Spicy expurgated portions of the required reading and juicy tidbits from the sex lives of the authors have made their way into his lectures to at least the Harvard meetings of the course, but just what he did or said to bring down the house...
