Appeal To A Greater Power In Global Crisis
A sweeping appeal for restraint and prayer follows Khrushchev's sharp anti American remarks after the U2 incident. The piece urges world leaders to seek common ground, justice, and divine intercession to avert renewed cold war fears before a key summit. It later critiques capital punishment in the Chessman case and reflects on public hysteria and victims. It ends with social commentary on male hair dye trends signaling changing times.
