by Melvin Lasky
Co-editor of Encounter
A recent book about Senator McCarthy by Richard Rovere has provoked discussion on how far the American press bears responsibility for the Senator's rise and fall. Mr. Lasky finds the case against American newspapers not proven, but he has doubts about sortie of the ways in which they fulfil their place in a democratic society.

An argument between
Anthony Cronin and William Cooper
' How much pointlessness the necessity to invent a sequence of events involves the writer in.' (Mr. Cronin in a recent literary quarterly)
' What, more than anything else, makes people read novels? The story.' (Mr. Cooper in a recent literary annual)
In this discussion they confront each other's views on whether a novel should or should not have a story.
