Hark, the Herald Tribune sings,
Advertising wondrous things.
[From "That Was the Year that Was"] Speaking of love, one problem
that recurs more and more frequently these days, in books and plays
and movies, is the inability of people to communicate with the
people they love; Husbands and wives who can't communicate,
children who can't communicate with their parents, and so on. And
the characters in these books and plays and so on (and in real
life, I might add) spend hours bemoaning the fact that they can't
communicate. I feel that if a person can't communicate, the very
least he can do is to Shut Up!
The Army has carried the American... ideal to its logical
conclusion. Not only do they prohibit discrimination on the
grounds of race, creed and color, but also on ability.
