...TIME covers have caused as much stir as the Herblock cartoon on the Oct. 3 issue, showing Nikita Khrushchev and his leather-jacketed gang of "East Side Rockets" prowling a New York street near the United Nations Building. Readers liked it; the subjects were understandably silent. Then last week there came a reaction from Yugoslavia's Marshal Tito, who was shown on the cover as a trenchcoated observer coolly watching from the sideline as K. and gang prowled. Belgrade's Vecernje Novosti (Evening News) carried a front-page picture of Tito and members of his executive council looking...
...liberal Democrats' catalogue of sins, Kennedy has one that ranks in liberal legend with Nixon's rough campaign for the Senate against Helen Gahagan Douglas.

...party and plat from even if he were a hard shelled Baptist. Brooklyn can not be described as a bigoted town, not were its voters preoccupied with the religious issue. What confuses the pollsters and impressed our survey team was the degree to which the issue is a silent one, weighing in the minds of those who have serious and what they consider legitimate doubts about the advisability of a Catholic in the White House. On the other side there are Catholics and anti-bigots who, while tending toward Nixon, may be so alienated by anti-Catholic literature that they...
