...encyclical Mater et Magistra (TIME, July 21), Pope John XXIII came out for the kind of "socialization" that includes economic planning and state-run welfare programs.

Women were freed from the "drudgery" of housework only to labor 18 hours a day in field and factory. Old folks were shut away in "happiness homes," babies in state-run crèches. In the nurseries. Chinese moppets sang...
