This alleged spokesman speaks not for me nor for the several millions of other American Jews. The vast majority of the American Jewish community has not opted for "Jewish leadership" to represent them before our own American government officials...
...Chairman Celler quietly ordered his Judiciary Committee staff to begin preparing articles of impeachment. With the agreement of House leaders, he and William McCulloch, the ranking Republican on the committee, talked with Mitchell. Though no one would say what Mitchell disclosed, his evidence was apparently convincing. "We got a vast amount of information," Celler told TIME Correspondent Neil MacNeil.

Released Piecemeal? Last week the passing of another general, G. Volkov, continued to provoke conjecture, fanciful as it seemed, about some sort of vast cabal.

A Kline may have had to be substituted for a Pollock here and there, but a rotation of pictures is often rewarding, as every housewife knows. For art lovers, the result is an unprecedented look at many treasures that have heretofore been visible only to friends dining...
