...land of the good Samaritan, it has been UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency) that has met the stranger on the road to Jericho and given him succor-or, in modern specifications, emergency medical treatment, food, clothing and shelter. For ten years, since the end of the Israeli war in 1949, UNRWA has been helping support 1,000,000 Arab refugees in 58 camps around Israel's borders. Richer Arabs say it is up to the West to help their poor Arab brethren, because it was the West that invited Israel in to become a nation. The Israelis...
...enforcement officers, and addicts go from court to jail. This is all wrong, says New York City's Chief Magistrate John M. Murtagh, 48, who from the bench has studied the sordid side of narcotics law enforcement and its failures for ten years.

Western psychoanalysis, the Navaho "Singer" treatment and related ritualistic healings in the cultures of the Saulteaux, Yurok, and Guatemalan Indians have certain points in common. Especially significant are the common traits of curing through an emotional experience, with the assumption that the cause of the disturbance lies beyond the patient's conscious self, whether in repressed...
...Veritas group first questioned Schlesinger's professional integrity late in 1957, when Robert H. Montgomery '30 initiated a long and detailed correspondence with Dean Bundy. Attempting to prove "deliberate falsehood" and "suppression of the truth" in Schlesinger's treatment of the Sacco-Vanzetti murder case, Montgomery pointed out at least three factual errors, and the omission of the "single most damning piece of evidence"--the .32 calibre pistol carried by Saco and containing the rare and absolete type of cartridge that killed the guard...
