The piece contrasts past bipartisan support with today’s distrustful climate, praising Marshall’s restraint from anti Communist rhetoric and warning of current leadership rot amid McCarthy era echoes. Von Weizsacker cites Marshall’s ethics as a model while urging a modern spirit for aid to the Third World.

Editorial: Judicial book burning in Alabama case
The editorial backs Albert Shanker against Judge Hand and his ban on 44 textbooks in Alabama schools, calling the ruling a dangerous precedent and advocating overturning the decision. It warns the ruling could chill teaching of traditional moral values and academics nationwide, arguing the First Amendment allows study of ideas regardless of religious alignment. The piece argues public education’s future hinges on overturning Hand’s order and preserving secular inquiry.
