There is the crux of the matter. Already a very active contributor to the "noncontributory" coal miners' pension fund, and with prospects of shortly assuming similar paternalism in behalf of the steel worker I don't see how I can conscientiously fail to do as well by the butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker...
...Learning reports on a project which has been in the works for four years: exposing secondary school pupils to current materials, a phrase which educators use to describe magazines, newspapers, radio recordings, and kindred study helps-as distinguished from textbooks.

...British discovered that at this point there was hardly a dry eye in the Russian audience.

An independent survey, run off at the same time, spotted former Nazis in more than one-half of all Bavarian State Government positions...
