The article focuses on several political issues related to the U.S. The heresy hunt continues in the New York school system. Three associate professors at Hunter College, one of the municipal colleges, have been dismissed by the Board of Higher Education. The three admitted past membership in the Communist Party. Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., the United States representative at the United Nations, achieved new dimensions of arrogance and crudity in his attack on Dr. Luther Evans, director of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, for failing to dismiss--without any sort of due process-eight U.S. employees who had received adverse loyalty reports. In a highly unusual legal move United Slates District Attorney Leo Rover, acting with the full knowledge and approval of Attorney General Brownell, has sought to disqualify Judge Luther W. Youngdahl from presiding at the trial of Owen Lattimore.
