Khrushchev hit hard at what he presents as the two main issues of the quarrel: 1) peaceful coexistence v. war, and 2) peaceful evolution toward Communism v. violent revolution. Returning to the defense of what the West has already taken to calling "goulash Communism," he said, in effect, that it is easier to fight a revolution on a full belly than on an empty one. The Chinese, he sneered, want him to tell the Russian people: "The economy has been sufficiently developed. Let us produce less so as not to become fat and thereby grow like the bourgeoisie...
Leidner faces obstacles. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled in 1944 that the privilege against self-incrimination applies only to verbal questions, not to compulsory physical or mental examinations. But things are changing fast. In Rochin v. California (1952), for example, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed the conviction of an alleged drug addict because the evidence against him was obtained by forced stomach pumping.

"Law reviews are by far the best training that any American law school can offer," sums up Yale's Law Dean Eugene V. Rostow. "Their educational value is unmatched by anything in the law schools themselves...
...dawn of the Spanish Renaissance, an elaborately carved and colonnaded patio was the pet and pride of Don Pedro Fajardo, first Marquis of Vélez and fifth governor of the Kingdom of Murcia. At the turn of the 20th century, the patio became the proud possession of Financial Baron George Blumenthal, onetime president of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. When his Park Avenue mansion was razed in 1945, the 2,000 numbered marble blocks of the patio were tucked away in the Met's attic. Last week its pearly facades were dedicated as part of the museum...
