Radcliffe officials will doubtless deny that they seek to control stories about Radcliffe that appear in the CRIMSON, but the action they have just taken against Miss Labenow has exactly that effect.

It may provoke the Peking government of China, or perhaps the Kremlin, into some new aggressive action, even into an all-out war.
