Desirable Mates. First Mitchell and Martin read from a photostat of a statement that they had left behind in a Laurel, Md. safe-deposit box-a maneuver designed to prove that they had made up their minds well out of reach of Russian brainwashing. They had "sought citizenship in the Soviet Union." said the two, because they had learned that the U.S. lies, because its secret agents spy on both hostile and friendly powers, because its international operatives manipulate money and military supplies in an effort to overthrow unfriendly governments...

The new body will have no power to interpret scripture...
...guys, savings and loan men spend upwards of $20 million a year on advertising-far more, proportionately, than the $45 million or so spent by banks, whose assets are seven times larger. A number of savings and loan associations offer many traditional banking services, including safe-deposit boxes, travelers' checks and money orders. They also have gifts for new investors, offer special lures for children. Last year 300 associations were using the services of Hopalong Cassidy to promote savings among moppets.
