Today's "Danish modern" is in a sense the climax of that tradition-a simple, sane and sanitary style suitable for all. The Met show has its full share of pleasing examples: the frugally lined furniture of Kaare Klint and Arne Jacobsen, the silver of Georg Jensen, bright-hued pottery by Axel Salto and Arnold Krog, and the toys of Kay Bojessen that combine beauty with humor. But despite the riches of the present, the fact remains that Denmark's most spectacular moments of majesty come from long...
...world tensions must take into account the actual and quite basic differences that divide East and West. Such an attempt, therefore, faces a long and difficult journey, and its success depends, to a large extent, on the willingness of the Eastern leaders to cooperate. Others, including the leaders of SANE, perhaps seeking a shorter and easier road to peace, advocate the cure-all of disarmament, either by a unilateral effort by this country or, less naively, through increased American effort towards a bilateral agreement.

Obviously, SANE is more likely than the pacifist groups to change society's attitude toward disarmament. It doesn't yet seem to know how.

...which party is located the principal support for SANE? The Republican Party? In which, the principal support for United World Federalists? The Republican Party? True liberals (often called "thinking liberals)--those who stand for a negotiated disarmament and for greater use of the United Nations--would do well to think about these questions. Unless revolution is contemplated--and there is something ludicrous in the thought of the HRLU taking to arms.--the liberal movement ought to get used to the idea that there are only two candidates. Liberals must realize that effective lobbying can be carried out only through...
