...Vice President, on the campaign front, was in vigorous dissent from the President's kind of above-the-battle political leadership. "There has developed in recent years," said Nixon in Salt Lake City, "the unsound idea that hard-hitting debate on the issues which confront the country is somehow wrong and detrimental to the best interests of the nation. We need more of this kind of debate in this country, both in and out of political campaigns, rather than less...
...First Lady of the Stage, which for Miss Anderson is nothing new. Her Australian accent is comprehensible once you get used to it, and not inappropriate for the memory-ridden, shabby-genteel matriarch. She projects a genuine grandeur, a sense that no matter what Isabel Lawton does she is somehow worthy of admiration.

Next day a Moroccan delegate angrily demanded that the Americans, French and Spaniards pull out of North Africa. A French Senator rose to protest that he had not come all the way to Florence to hear a "systematic...
...Rajput painters, Moviemaker Ray arranges his visions of the natural world-the water flies that flicker on a pond, the lily pads that flap in a sudden gale, the rain that batters at a young girl's face-in frame after frame of temperate loveliness. Moreover, the family somehow transcends its tragedy by the very energy and fullness with which the tragedy is lived. The director has a sense of life far larger than the merely tragic. Moreover, he has humor. The picture bubbles over with gentle laughter at the absurd things people...
