...information. Since the value of the thesis does not depend on who gave the information, the thesis-writer can call him simply "a government source," and any "scholar" who really wants to know the informant's name can write to the author requesting it. It is certainly absurd to restrict a whole thesis just because one small part of it is attributed to a man whose name need not be used. When a newspaper gets an "off-the-record" interview, it either uses the material without giving the interviewee's name or runs nothing; it certainly does not write...

Point Four has failed, said Sloan, because the Government has failed to restrict its grants to those nations which will guarantee U.S. private capital against confiscation or unfair treatment.

...Electricity Board decided to check up on the working habits of its 700 meter readers. Its inspectors' findings: Many of the readers finish work before lunchtime, spend several hours over lunch, waste an hour or more before starting work.
