...Farber's digging that led to the multiple-murder indictment of Dr. Mario Jascalevich, who is charged with injecting lethal doses of the muscle relaxant curare into three patients in a small suburban New Jersey hospital during 1965-66. The doctor's defense lawyer demanded to see Farber's notes, but Farber refused, citing the First Amendment and a New Jersey "shield" law that allows reporters the privilege of keeping their sources confidential. A New Jersey judge asked to see the notes in private, and Farber still refused. Off to jail he went, cited for contempt...

...nine fellow craft unions (the typesetters, the only holdouts, have a no-strike contract) as well as by the Newspaper Guild, which represents editorial employees.

For the past two weeks he has waged a lobbying campaign, meeting with members of Congress, business executives and newspaper editors. One day, he even ventured into enemy territory by participating in a public meeting in Fairfax, Va., a suburban county where it is estimated that 40% of the families have at least one member who works for the Federal Government...

...sophisticated, beautifully made and, by the conventions of photojournalism, not very arresting. Its pleasures have to do with formal wit, mild irony and surrealist incongruity. One sees a thing nailed down with a decisive tap, as when Lee Friedlander, a deceptively casual imagemaker, positions his eyeline on an ordinary suburban street to get a flowering shrub directly behind a lamppost, so that the street light seems to be emitting great sprays of blossom in broad daylight. In one way, Elliott Erwitt's New Jersey, 1953, is a most plainly observed view by a roadside: sky, bushes, bus stop...
