Many short-sighted individuals, however, might fear totalitarianism. They can cite Dean Leighton's power to refuse entry to people from gauche geographical areas. In a Free Harvard the good Dean could control immigration completly. Similarly, there is some fear that Free Harvard would automatically become a Theocracy, under the sway of President Pusey and a College of Cardinals (Red Kellogg, P. Tillich, etc.). Actually, a national church would be beneficial. For one thing, there would be a lot more pomp, of which there is too little in these meagre days...
Said Stuart: "The descriptions . . . often resemble old-fashioned Communist caricatures rather than sober presentations of fact." The ambassador then proceeded to cite some sobering facts about Canada-U.S. economic relations: ¶ Rather than increasing to dangerous flood proportions, as some special pleaders claim, the flow of U.S. capital into Canada is actually receding. It was $346 million in 1953, $318 million in 1954, dropped farther in 1955. ¶ Canada's great industrial boom in recent years was neither wholly financed nor owned by U.S. investors. About 85% of the overall expansion was financed by Canadians themselves. Incoming...

Chiefly responsible for the educational project is Cass D. Alvin, the Steelworkers' western regional educational director. Alvin likes to cite a page of labor history as the wrong way to cope with the problem: England's igth century "Luddites" tried to stem the infant Industrial Revolution by smashing up the new machinery. Says Alvin: "We could kick these new electronic machines like the Luddites did, but they wouldn't give a damn...
...diet, and a special thought for the lovers in Widener reference. Good resting to the students of Paleontology and Stratigraphy and those who converse in Advanced Mandarin, and happy times too for the men who sweep up leaves on windy days. Big eating and long sleeping to Faculty who cite the Fifth Amendment, to students walking Garden Street in black capes, and to sophomores parked in restricted areas. We think especially of the girls of Radcliffe College; may they continue to find romance in the classrooms and M.I.T. men in the quadrangle. A rich Thanksgiving Day to poets in search...
