After the Revolution
SIR:
MULTITHANKS FOR A FINE PIECE ON NEWSMEN IN CARACAS [Feb. 3]. HOWEVER, THERE IS ONE INACCURACY WHICH MUST BE STRAIGHTENED OUT BECAUSE IT REFLECTS UNFAVORABLY ON CORRESPONDENTS. THE LIQUOR BAN WAS DEFEATED TOO, AND AT LEAST TWO TIME AND LIFE OPERATIVES CAN TESTIFY THEY ATTENDED POST MORTEM SESSIONS ON REVOLUTION WITHOUT ANYBODY'S THROAT OUTDRYING.

Mark up victory for Khrushchev and Bulganin, who have stampeded us into drives lor higher salaries for scientists, teachers and generals. We are destroying our own economy and building that of half-civilized nations through purchases and loans for fear they will gravitate into the Soviet orbit. GARDNER GRIFFITH Phoenix, Ariz.
Sir:
Your Jan. 20 missile report is masterful. How different is the shoddy treatment of this subject in our daily newspapers.

Sir:
Re the Jan. 27 article "No Jews Allowed": I am a Canadian and work in a building that bears on its face the legend, "Here the Canadian Club Movement had its Beginning, December 6, 1892." Every time I read this in the future, I will be ashamed, for it will remind me that this "prestigious" club has slandered the country it is supposed to bring honor and pride to.

Yea, Team!
Sir:
The members of the Glenview Community Church are sincere in their search for the true meaning of religion, which is more than I can say for your adulterated, flamboyant, superficial Jan. 27 article.

Sir:
Congratulations for exposing the country club that poses as a church in Glenview.
ROBERT AHL Glenview, Ill.
Sir:
Even your "Dancing for the Gods" article says, "Among the peoples of Asia dancing is still an organic and important part of religion; each step and gesture . . . may be loaded with metaphysical meaning." The inner meaning in the new vitality Protestantism is recovering in the suburbs is yet to be appreciated by you. We hopefully await the day when a reporter from TIME will do as much for the natives in suburban American churches as he does for the Asian natives. RUSSELL J. BECKER ROBERT A.

Sir:
The Glenview Community Church should change its "billboard" to read: the Glenview Community Club. And its ministers should drop their titles.
