...quote a man if your restrictions of space must damage his idea? I refer to your piece about me in PEOPLE [Sept. 14]. I talked for five minutes in complex fashion about Women's Liberation. You pulled three unrelated sentences out of it. The ladies deserve to take over journalism...

...refer here, of course, to a true desire widely held, not to that deceitful McCarthy kind which merely masks a drive for power. Much of the explanation for the growth among us of intolerant attitudes and the acceptance of destructive styles of behavior which should be anathema in academic societies is undoubtedly to be found in such considerations...

Iran and Iraq stopped all reports about their cholera epidemics after 1964, when the Soviet Union refused to accept shipments of citrus fruits and other goods from cholera-stricken Iran. Both countries now refer only to outbreaks of misleadingly labeled "summer diarrhea." Egyptian authorities have been equally ostrichlike. Fearful of disrupting their country's ailing tourist industry, they have refused to restrict travel and euphemistically describe as "summer disease" what one World Health Organization official estimates to be 3,000 current cases...
