...Bass's letter is the most intelligent, serious, and substantive of the lot. He makes some valid criticisms of my article. However, I am reluctant to credit the Nieman year with the development of 14 Pulitzer prize-winners, as the program inducts only the best young newspapermen after they are well on their...
Martin's irony may have been heavyhanded, but his point was valid. In the midst of unprecedented national prosperity, a sense of nervousness pervades U.S. banks, board rooms and union halls. The economy has entered a delicate stage where difficult decisions have to be made about such matters as prices and money supply - decisions that will strongly influence the degree of future prosperity.

A four-year gubernatorial term is indeed a progressive idea; but almost all these states retain two-year terms for their legislators for equally valid reasons. It is also impossible to follow the President's contention that better men will be attracted into government by a four-year term; on the contrary, many districts may begin electing political hacks who let the national ticket do all the talking for them...
