...important news about the Rockefeller campaign, as the could-be candidate moved from private conference to pressagent ceremonial to public speech, is that he is hammering together perhaps the most complete individual platform of any candidate in sight. One reason: Rockefeller's big advantage over Nixon is that, standing outside the Eisenhower Administration and the Federal Government, he can speak out more freely on national issues than Insider Nixon can. Fundamental in Rockefeller's strategy is a decision to push that advantage hard. Rockefeller on the issues...
...Public Rights. Key to the Government's successful long-shot prosecution was Federal Judge Irving R. Kaufman's ruling that the police, in halting and questioning the defendants, had not encroached upon the constitutional guarantee against illegal search and seizure. Judge Kaufman, whose scrupulous conduct of the death-sentence Rosenberg spy trial (TIME, April 16, 1951) withstood all appeals, held that the police had "reasonable grounds" for believing that "a crime might have been committed"; that "the circumstances were such that an immediate stoppage and investigation was rendered absolutely necessary."

But NATO members seem fearful of examining these awkward truths too closely. Instead, covering their indecision with phrases, the Council members decided last week to abandon the term "integrated" air defense in favor of "unified" air defense and to turn the problem over to NATO's Permanent Council for later decision. In effect, this was to pass the buck to Eisenhower...
...organize humanity without a God and without a king," cried Premier Jules Ferry, and in 1880 the Third Republic began passing the laws out of which France's public schools were born. It was an old passion with anticlerical Frenchmen, who could not forget the clergy flocking to support King Louis XVIII (1814-24) and the Bourbon restoration. The government ordered a new curriculum that was stripped of all religious overtones...
