Popular Cause. Some of this information, spread before Congress last week, was new; some was old. But lumped together it made a haunting specter. There was no question of the puniness of present U.S. strength (outside of the Bomb) alongside the picture of Russian power...
Every Child Knows. At last, the Russian representative lays aside his paper with respectful attention: curly-headed Communist Bruno Baum takes the floor. He is the only one of the gathering who looks well-fed; his jowls are heavy and his stomach folds over his belt. Briskly, he assails the Western powers for "looting" Berlin and denounces-with no supporting proof-removal of its factories to the Western zones. All but the Communists guffaw.

The two Russian officers showed their unconcern-one by strolling out, the other by reading a newspaper. The assembly (all but the score of S.E.D. Communists) applauded...
