The article focuses on various political issues all over the world. Talk of Ernest Bevin's surrender may well be premature, but even the most cautious follower of events in Israel must feel heartened at the enormous change that the past two weeks have brought. Defeated and dispirited, but with a characteristic dramatic flair, Chiang Kai-shek retired last week as Generalissimo and President of China, "to lessen the hardships of my people." Last Monday the State Commissioner of Education received briefs and heard oral argument on the question of the banning of The Nation. The President had sound political reason for the tone and emphasis of his inaugural address.
