...Aleppo!" In the U.N., Syrian Foreign Minister Salah el Bitar, sounding more than ever like a Soviet ventriloquist's dummy, demanded a full-scale debate on "the threat to Syria's security." Said he: "The Turkish troops have apparently been given a slogan, 'To Aleppo!', which they now publicly repeat." Soviet Delegate Andrei Gromyko delightedly expanded the charge: "Apparently," said he, "the intention of the U.S.A. is to employ in Syria the method it resorted to in suppressing the independence of Guatemala." U.S. Delegate Henry Cabot Lodge promptly welcomed "an opportunity for a full airing...
...famous communist slogan reads: "Religion is the opium of the people." Consequently the communists began with the negation of God. This was the fundamental point of their educational system--the negation of everything in disagreement with their philosophy, beginning with the ultimate.

In picking a new name for his "general market" station, Tannen combed the dictionary before deciding that WEEP held all sorts of possibilities: "A surefire slogan: 'WEEP for joy.' I can call myself the WEEP veep; we'll have a traveling car called the WEEP jeep; and, my God, think of what we can say when we sign off: 'And now, for the next twelve hours you won't hear a peep...
Malott told the student leaders to act fast to change the system or the faculty would change it for them. This appeal to the student body was a last, feeble call based on the old "Freedom and Responsibility" slogan: that is, the students should work out their own problems by themselves. This appeared a bit ridiculous since the validity of "Freedom and Responsibility" rests largely on the recognition by the group of its responsibility. The Cornell student body had to be told to recognize its responsibility...
