Not since the Hitler-Stalin pact of 1939 had the Kremlin acted so palpably from fear and weakness. Under present-day conditions, Moscow's treatment of Prague makes for a very poor prognosis for the future of Communism. The thrust that made the Dubcek regime possible will not die with that government...

Moreover, this can be done in the doctor's office or an out-patient clinic. One of the first and most grateful beneficiaries of the new treatment system is David M.
