The round table discussion on this truly-named "Open Mind" series was led by Richard Heffner. Guests were Dr, Robert Laidlaw, rsychiatrist: Florence Kelley, lawyer, and Dr. Arthur Swift, minister and department head, the New School for Social Research. The intelligent and unbiască treatment of the subject by these panelists is to be commended.
