Knowing TIME wishes to print the truth, I wish to correct an error in your issue April 3, p. 46. You state Joseph Schlitz founded Schlitz Brewing Co. This brewery was founded about 1848 by a master brewer named Kruch. It was known as Kruch's Brewery until his death. His widow married Mr. Schlitz (Kruch's book-keeper).

To transform drudgery-begrudging serfs into enthusiastic labor "shock-troops"' might seem a big enough ambition, but U.S.S.R. plans go deeper than that. The Communist gospel is in truth a religion-a religion that teaches its adherents a new morality, and no good Communist is happy till he gets it.
