Your caption writer inaptly labeled your front page "Britons never shall be robots;" he's evidently out of touch with Britain. This country is being tied hand & foot by a mass of incoherent legislation, miles of red tape, and a never-ending stream of forms. You list Labor's so-called achievements-take a look at the other side of the picture. For the first time in our history we have bread rationing; conditions are worse than in wartime; you can't buy a new pane of glass or paint for your porch without filling...
...idea for his new 25? monthly magazine Sport had looked like a natural to Elder for the past four years: Americans bought 30,000,000 tickets to sports events every month. There were magazines for participants, or fans in special fields (Field and Stream, The Ring, Yachting, etc.), but none which covered all sports for the spectator...
Nazi persecutions and continuing anti-Semitism in Europe (particularly Poland) have swelled the stream of migration far beyond the dreams of World War I Zionists.

Wretched Arab Fellahin, the peasant workers, have angrily watched their landlords sell Arab lands to the Jews at inflated prices. This meant even fewer poor acres for the impoverished Arabs. The Arab landlords and princes have angrily watched the Jews...
Under the first chief, Physicist Joseph Henry, the Smithsonian's scientists, trying to do "pure research" amid the clutter, kept fairly close to the main stream of scientific progress. They set up an effective weather reporting system before the Weather Bureau, did important work in other fields. Later chiefs also had their triumphs; Samuel Pierpont Langley, the most famous, worked out the principles of the airplane before the Wright brothers made one that would...
...transfer agent. More radical, and probably more interesting to imaginative technicians, would be a motor using atomic energy direct. This would be possible if "fissionable material" could be made to "explode slowly" like the propellent material in a bazooka projectile. The products of the slow explosion would have to stream out in one direction, giving a powerful, sustained push in the opposite direction. The obstacles blocking either approach were admittedly enormous. "Even contemplating the problems," said an Air Forces spokesman last week, "makes the viscera of some of us refuse to function...
