...TIME since March 1923, I have had ample opportunity to notice that TIME does not indulge in Tabloid photographs nor Gum-Chewers-Sheetlet reporting.

...which lives strictly in the tradition of its fathers. Through it the great Yiddish language dailies (Forward, Day, Morning Journal) wield their power. A second generation (roughly preWar) shied away from the piety and solidarity of the oldster. To it the selfconscious, defensive Jewish weeklies address themselves. Many students profess to see now the beginning of a third generation, youthful and intelligent, proud but inquiring, race-conscious but dispassionate.
