Contemporary saucer sightings, wrote Carl Gustav Jung in a book published before his death in 1961, are an outgrowth of the troubled international situation and gradual erosion among Christians of belief in a God who can intervene to save man from his own folly.

At that point, the Justice Department filed suit not only to break up the merger but to nullify the original joint operating agreement as well...
...running, and who is working for whom and why. Grady is a cynic; as his talk reveals. he has no sympathy for those who work for a candidate so they can go back and boast about it, and even less sympathy for those who get involved so they "can save the city." Don't some people campaign out of truly altruistic motives? "There's no such a thing," snaps Grady, "there's no such a thing, they do it to puff them-selves up; at best, they do it to ease their conscience...
