During these eventful years, the International Psycho-Analytical Association was formed; and the Association and its Journal occupied much of the energy of Freud and his "Committee." The workings and interrivalries of this Committee, which was composed of such psycho-analytic pioneers as Otto Rank, Karl Abraham, Max Eitingon, Sandor Ferenczi, Hanns Sachs, and Jones himself, take up a large part of the book. This is for the most part, space well-spent, since these men were instrumental in the formation of the presently-used theories of psycho-analysis...
...greatest defectors, Alfred Adler and Carl Gustav Jung, had left him long before, along with Wilhelm Stekel. In the 19203 they were followed by Otto Rank (who proved to be suffering from manic-depressive psychosis that had gone unsuspected in the inner circle of analysts), by Wilhelm Reich, and finally by the fawning Ferenczi, whose lifelong emotional troubles were compounded at the end by pernicious anemia and organic brain damage. Through it all, Freud held firmly to the line he had laid down: "We have only one aim and one loyalty-to psychoanalysis." When Stekel big-heartedly attempted a late...
Before the time of Otto von Bismarck, Germany was not much more than a geographical expression-a sprawling, warring collection of states, duchies and feudal enclaves where the Hessians.

...want to give them every cent they need," cried Louisiana's Representative Otto Passman, leader of the cut-foreign-aid forces. The Eisenhower Administration, said Passman & Co., already has about $9.5 billion in unspent foreign-aid funds appropriated in previous years-plenty to keep the program going. Democrats could therefore place themselves on the record at one and the same time for economy and for effective foreign aid. The argument worked: the House cut the mutual-assistance appropriation to $3,191,810,000, about $810 million below the Administration's request and $175 million less than the House...
