With city officials everywhere wax
ing up to the fact that our Sabotage
children can buy dirty books" laced
with pictures that would shock the
most hardened character, certain pub
fishers are again using the U. S. mails
to get their corrupting message into
the hands of potential customers.
One Of the latest to flood local
mailboxes is a circular which tells of
lone of the great untitled needs of
English literature and offers for sale
a treatise on erotic works which have
somehow survived centuries of prose-
c%ution, burning and bowdlerizing." We
are assured that this volume. sdoes not
concern itself with cheap pornography'
but MERELY lists "the great erotic
works, describes their contents,
reproduces selected portions, recounts
the fascinating histories of their sur
vival, and tells where the works can
be consulted" That's all it does,

Frankly, I think Senator Nc

The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1958-09-26

Rather unfairly and unfortunately
the press, cartoons, and other news.
media have for many years led a great
many people in the United States to
believe that most politicians are sly,
rotund, c~igar-smoking characters who
often conduct shady and sinister bust
ness and plan their ~rstrategy in semi
dark, smoke-filled rooms. L.
One must hasten to add that many
still hold this view even with much
explanation and convincing proof to
the contrary. Others who have changed
their opinion, often maintain some SEM
blance of doubt.
