...first to dissuade bodily or mental inferiors from marrying and especially from procreation. Second, to prevent marriages between hereditarily tainted persons, the same as a marriage between an Aryan and a non-Aryan. Third, to influence the choice of life partners from a health as well as a racial viewpoint...
...paradoxically made herself a symbol for the kind of allure which her appearance naturally suggests by ridiculing it. She was blithely hailed as a femme fatale until the suicide of her second husband, Paul Bern, made this designation seem shockingly impolite. Since then, fan magazines have shifted their viewpoint and painted "the real Jean Harlow" as a cross between a camp cook and an English sheepdog, notable mainly for her skill in making salad dressings and the difficulty she experiences with shampoos.

Typical also was the amiable alacrity with which...
...value of installing in the Times building the Pynson Printers, a small shop conducted by Elmer Adler (no kin), devoted to the finest craftsmanship. Since Mr. Sulzberger has been active head man, the Times has established a week-end news review, a daily book review of astonishingly free viewpoint. But no observer expects the Times to be changed fundamentally from the institution created by Adolph Ochs. Even if he could do it, Arthur Hays Sulzberger would...
