...libel suit, which is nothing unusual for Nelson Rounsevell. I spent a year on the Panama American, 1931-32, and have the distinction of being one of the few persons to leave Rambling Rounsevell's service without being fired. "N. R." in my opinion is the most fearless and independent living publisher. He started the P. A. practically on a shoe-string and has overcome opposition that few publishers have ever been forced to contend with. . . . "N. R." . . . has shown an utter disdain for advertisers.

Among the numerous publications which have taken root in Harvard soil there is one which has perhaps been unequaled in its presentation as well as the unusual nature of its contents. This is a fearless publication. Admitting the difficulty of treating the subject, the last issue of Arnold Arboretum's "Bulletin of Popular Information" throws caution to the winds and breathlessly sails into an abstruse problem which has never in the history of writing been treated so sensitively...

...note two letters in this week's [July 15] issue of TIME from tender-skinned clerical brothers, chiding you for the very thing which makes TIME so good-its fine, fearless frankness. A fortnight ago the magazine was overdue and I had to buy a copy from the newsstand, in order to maintain my Friday equilibrium. Of course I often take issue with what you print, and sometimes you make me mad. I am glad you do upset me: such agitation is necessary for a sane, decanal existence. So keep on being natural and racey-and even spicey...
