Injustice and intolerance jar free speech rights
TEMPO cent display of injustice, intolerance, vituperation and invective has tended to impose restraints upon that easy possession of individual rights. THE COMMUNISTS in North Korea force Korean women to marry Manchurian and Mongolian settlers and soldiers, a South Korean spokesman said this week. He denounced the acts as a crime against humanity. The failure of the United States to apply lessons of World War I to World War II prolonged the war and added perhaps $100 billion to the national debt, said Bernard M. Baruch, advisor to Presidents. He traced inflation to attempts to manipulate supply and demand during wars. Rep. Javits urged a UN General Assembly session on Indochina to seek independence and collective defense measures. French counterspies arrested a Polish refugee in Paris for selling secrets to an embassy. Employees of Empresa Electrica de Guatemala threatened to strike to oust superintendent John D. Carver amid maltreatment charges.
