The Week

A small group of American expatriates (read: turncoats) in Cuba, calling themselves North American Friends of Cuba, has been propagandizing for the Castro regime on the radio. All the members share, for public consumption at least, the views that there is more liberty in Cuba than in the U.S., and that the real story of the Castro revolution has not been told. The first view is perhaps a wee bit exaggerated, and there is nothing they can do about it anyway; but think of their opportunity to tell the real revolutionary story (which, one must agree, sorely wants telling): their transmitters may be weak, but their audience will be held captivated.

politics: Joe Shell ran a fine campaign in California, full of life and purpose. Richard Nixon won: we trust he will make it possible for all conservatives to back him…. State Senator John Lupton lost to Liberal Republican John Alsop in the Connecticut gubernatorial race, but was chosen to run as congressman-at-large by acclamation…. John Davis Lodge, who lost to Rep. Seely Brown in the senatorial race, has the votes to force a primary, and we hope he will…. And fine news that his friends and supporters persuaded Walter Judd to change his mind, and run again for Congress.
