Barnard Peace Action Committee argues for a strengthened neutrality act to prevent drift toward no neutrality.

Readers discuss the plan for Barnard students to voluntarily submit fingerprints to the government. Opinions range from strong support citing identification benefits to concerns about surveillance and political misuse.
The play shows a starving, ignorant mountaineer family amid textile union struggles in Leedsville. Will Geer Norma Chambers Paula Bauersmith and Shepperd Strudwick deliver strong performances as the production presents a tragic, socially conscious drama with moments of humor and poetry.
