This article presents information on various social and political issues concerning the U.S. In connection with the proposed increase in magazine and newspaper mailing rates, the periodical Time presented a list of "small magazines," among which it cited The Nation. In some cases, said Time, the hike would add up to a death sentence. In the article, the corresponding figures were given for Time, Inc. Its postage payments would rise $7,500,000 a year, to $25,500,000. Integration is coming hard for white Southerners, but particularly hard for the Roman Catholics of Louisiana. Not only has Judge J. Skelly Wright of the U.S. Federal District Court decreed that all public schools in New Orleans, Louisiana from the first through the sixth grades are to be open to African-American children this fall.
