...italicized words carry a very unsavory suggestion, yet one does not lightly question any statement published in TIME. One presumes that such statements are to a reasonable extent based upon facts. On this presumption it seems pertinent to ask, when, or how TIME ever conceived the idea that there is any unprintable version of ''The Halls of Montezuma"? Let me say to you, to all writers for TIME and to all its readers, that all Marines, rank and file, honor that anthem and hold it in the highest esteem. To them it is not a song...
...Briggs' characterization of the great majority of private schools as detrimental to the public interest has likewise much to support it. It is fair to question, however, whether those schools which have been planned to serve experimental purposes or to represent interests not in conflict with the interests to which the public schools are devoted, are as unjustifiable as Dr. Briggs has maintained. The history of education records many contributions to educational theory and practice from experimentation carried on in private schools; and large as are the contributions now being made by experimentation in public school systems, no insignificant credit...

Suppose that the West and South should achieve a little more sobriety and therefore a little more dependability on the part of all industrial workers, from the highest to the lowest? Would that give them a little advantage over Massachusetts, or would it give Massachusetts a little advantage over them? They who think that...
...most sensational single development of the Chicago survey was the elimination of all parking in the congested "loop" area. It was obvious to the survey engineers that the lanes of parked cars along the curb were a serious obstruction to all traffic movement. But there is no more delicate question in the whole traffic problem than parking. Merchants look on the parked car as a source of much business. Motorists resent any attempt to curtail parking as an abrogation of personal privilege...
