Is Mao a Titoist?

everybody was already conforming all over the place, even the professional devotees of anti-conformism for its own sake.

This being so, Mr. Whyte wonders where new ideas, discoveries, methods, aims and basic patents can possibly originate in the America of tomorrow. It is a valid worry. But the reaction will surely come; indeed, Mr. Whyte is already a portent of it. The trot which he supplies to help corporation applicants to cheat on ‘‘personality tests” is in itself so hilarious that the tests must cease henceforward to be taken seriously. I will make a bet: in a fashion-ridden America Mr. Whyte will himself become the new fashion with the “ad-vanced” industrialist of 1957. One can only hope that the fashion will leave a permanent mark.
