Here again Mr. Conant's judgment must be criticized. Several of the ten who were fired showed extraordinary brilliance during their terms at Harvard. It is quite certain that better men will not turn up. It is even more certain that these assistant professors were not judged fairly, when it is considered that their departments were forced to recommend their dismissals--after the manner of the Walsh-Sweezy Case-- because there was no other possible expedient.

But this week, while doubtful Louisville citizens could look south into the TVA area and wonder how the greatest public ownership project in U. S. history would turn out, they could look west to plushy, conservative Colorado Springs, Colo., and see how one public ownership enterprise did turn out. For Colorado Springs (pop. 35,000) had just paid off the last $181,000 of the $2,200,000 debt it assumed when it began city operation...
