Communists do not believe in heaven but they have their saints. John Reed, dead at 33, buried by the Kremlin wall close to the tomb of Russia's god, is already canonized. To such Harvard classmates as Red-fearing Hamilton Fish Jr., Reed was a traitor to his class. But even within the revolutionary sect his sainthood is not unanimously acknowledged. Upton Sinclair called him "the playboy of the social revolution." To sympathetic Biographer Granville Hicks. Reed's life is an ennobling example of how revolutionaries are made. Unbiased readers of John Reed will feel that Sinclair...
...this great University has thriven, should remain unlynched, unfought, and unavenged? I put the issue squarely before you: should a President thus avowedly upholding the principles of class hatred, violence, murder, dictatorship, tyranny, and unconstitutionality remain in office at Harvard? If you answer yes, you also are an unAmerican traitor, the only difference between you and a convicted criminal being that there is now in effect a law against the latter, whereas the law against you and your sort has not yet been passed...

Last week the peculiar detestation Leon Blum is capable of arousing nearly cost him his life and sent France careening around a sharp, dangerous political curve. In a car driven by Socialist Deputy Georges Monnet and with Mme Monnet at his side, Socialist Blum edged too close to a Royalist funeral procession. The militant mourners were young, cane-swinging stalwarts of the Action Franchise, supporters...
Hero Hoare. The vote was not to come until midnight and it was then midafternoon. Sharp at 3:40 p.m. Scapegoat Sir Samuel Hoare appeared. If treachery and cowardice had been shown, he was at least the No. 2 Traitor and the No. 2 Coward. What is known as British fair play won him upon his entry a veritable tumult of cheers from all parts of the House of Commons. His chief accuser, Nobel Peaceman Sir Austen Chamberlain, a pillar of official rectitude and a torch of moral indignation against The Deal, had been saving a place...
