January 1973
“According to columnist Jack Anderson, the FBI obtains
‘informal’ access—without the benefit of subpoena—to bank accounts
of political dissidents. Anderson last summer gave the Senate
Banking Committee FBI memos on the bank accounts of Jane Fonda,
Benjamin Spock, and Floyd McKissick, to prove his point.”
—“Hollow Victory on Banking Secrecy”
“Intellectuals in the humanities have long attacked science for
its alleged tendency to make people less ‘human’ and have created
the stereotype of the robotlike scientist who feels neither
pleasure nor pain.”
—Ronald E. Merrill, “The New Anti-Science Movement”
“What was once popular fiction, often derided as ‘pulp trash’
devoid of intellectual content, is now being promoted as ‘serious
literature’—subject to the condition it conform to current
preconceptions of ‘literary’ values.”
—John J. Pierce, “Science Fiction in Perspective”
