...Bubbling Joy. The book's message is told in narrative form, purportedly by an unnamed peasant who wanders through Russia and Siberia with a knapsack of dried bread for food and the charity of man for shelter. His first concern is to find out how one may fulfill the famed Biblical admonition to "pray without ceasing."

They have been supplied with electronic bombsights, two new types of 600-m.p.h. jet bombers (the T-37 and T-39, resembling respectively the U.S. 6-52 and 6-47), and probably with hydrogen bombs...

Looking for a domestic tin source, the U.S. has laid out $2,894,576 in loans and loan guarantees to develop the low-grade (.4%) ore of the Lost River mine, 40 miles east of Siberia. Last week the Joint Congressional Committee on Defense Production, headed by Indiana's Senator Homer Capehart, issued a chilly report indicating that the U.S. was taken in by some cool customers...
