...stories of the economic crisis in Bolivia, the aftermath of revolution in Cuba, and government corruption in the Philippines. Replying to this criticism has given us the opportunity to restate some truths about TIME, and I thought you might like to see where we stand. The following is the text of one reply to a critic...
...image in sybaritic luxury is now being tried experimentally in the U.S. with startling success. In Los Angeles, Painter June Wayne, 41, took a flyer by publishing the poems of 17th century Poet John Donne, illustrated by 14 of her own lithographs. The lithographs were pulled in Paris, the text printed in Berlin. At $225 a copy, Lithographer Wayne's edition of 110 seems likely to be a sellout by year...
...Manhattan, Gallery Owner André Emmerich has published A Preface and Four Seasons, which combines the pleasant, anecdotal reveries of Novelist Irwin (The Young Lions) Shaw with five signed lithographs by fast-rising U.S. Abstractionist-in-Paris John Levee, 35.

Offshore a party on an aircraft carrier makes "the final perfect touch against the violet horizon." Sales to date: eight (which included a signed gouache...

But now and then there appears a third type -the man who kills without apparent motive, yet appears sane before and after the crime...
...dialogue and narration are by anybody I can think of. A picture of Passionella in her swimming pool, with a vast expanse of bosom floating before her, says more than a thousand "Will you mammary me" jokes about America's breast-fixation. Mr. Feiffer uses a flexible combination of text and pictures thoroughly intermixed; nobody's else is quite like it, and no quotations simply of words will get across its effect. Even people not in the in-group, even (God save the mark) people who approve of H-bomb tests, might buy Passionella just to watch a master satirist...
