...Legion tried to suppress another textbook in Nebraska, but with much less success. Joseph Vurardi, chairman of the Legion's Nebraska Un-American Activities Committee, accused "a certain professor" at the University of Nebraska of using "a certain book" in his class. "Students can't swallow that staff," Vurardi said. The book turned out to be "The State of Asia," a publication of the Institute of Pacific Relations. One of its articles was written by Owen Lattimore. The "indoctrinator" was Dr. E. N. Anderson, professor of history...

After that, all Gottwald had to do was suppress his rivals and keep Moscow happy, both of which he managed fairly well. But Moscow has not been 100% happy, for Czechoslovakia, a highly industrialized and once prosperous nation, has been in deepening economic crises for the past five years...
...inquisitorial committees and then appear like sheep for the slaughter? Or may they invoke the historic means of protest against aggression wherever it is found? I see nothing dishonorable in the assertion of the constitutional privilege any more than in reliance on the Fourth Amendment right to suppress evidence unlawfully seized or the Sixth Amendment right to counsel and a jury trial.
