Cytat
Do celu tam się wysiada. Lec Stanisław Jerzy (pierw. de Tusch-Letz, 1909-1966)
A bogowie grają w kości i nie pytają wcale czy chcesz przyłączyć się do gry (. . . ) Bogowie kpią sobie z twojego poukładanego życia (. . . ) nie przejmują się zbytnio ani naszymi planami na przyszłość ani oczekiwaniami. Gdzieś we wszechświecie rzucają kości i przypadkiem wypada twoja kolej. I odtąd zwyciężyć lub przegrać - to tylko kwestia szczęścia. Borys Pasternak
Idąc po kurzych jajach nie podskakuj. Przysłowie szkockie
I Herkules nie poradzi przeciwko wielu.
Dialog półinteligentów równa się monologowi ćwierćinteligenta. Stanisław Jerzy Lec (pierw. de Tusch - Letz, 1909-1966)

.Thehumanism of the Unitarian editor of the Christian Register, AlbertDieffenbach contributed to feuding between the denominational pa-pers.In 1929 van Schaick wrote except for being mistaken most ofthe time.the Christian Register and its dynamic editor are per-fect. The Leader was a weekly publication throughout most of itshistory, but low circulation and costs led to cutbacks, so that it waspublished twice a month beginning in 1941, and then monthly in1948.When van Schaick stepped down in 1945, he was succeeded byEmerson Hugh Lalone, who had been the business manager of thePublishing House.Lalone s tenure brought another name changeback to Universalist Leader in 1953, a move that some criticized be-cause they felt it emphasized denominational awareness in a timewhen they were considering consolidation with the Unitarians.Thepaper became less known for its quality opinion articles and becamea smaller, denominational newsheet.It was in a final transition periodin 1960 when Lalone died, and Raymond Baughan filled most of thatgap as editor.The consolidation of the Unitarians and Universalists in 1961brought some confusing name changes to the publication.At first itwas published jointly with the Unitarian Register as the UnitarianRegister-Universalist Leader in May 1961 with the Universalistscovering only about one-quarter of the production costs.The nextyear it was the Unitarian-Universalist Register-Leader, which stuckuntil 1968, when the short term UUA Now appeared before it was fi-nalized to Unitarian Universalist World.CHRISTIAN REGISTER.The major periodical of the Unitariansthroughout their separate history, the Christian (later Unitarian) Reg-ister, was published in Boston from 1821 to 1961 when it wasmerged with the Universalist Leader to create the Register-Leader.The Christian Register first appeared on April 20, 1821, with DavidReed acting as its editor.Reed wrote that the purpose of the paperwas to inculcate the principles of a rational faith, and to promote thepractice of genuine piety (Eliot, Heralds, p.211).Reed, who was anordained minister, remained the owner of the paper for more than 40years and was its editor for many years, too.The paper was indepen-CHRISTIAN REGISTER " 109dent of the American Unitarian Association (AUA), which wasformed four years after the paper started publishing.It was a weeklypaper that included not only liberal Christian views, but national andinternational political, social, and cultural news as well.At first, itcarried little church news.Although the paper often advocated forvarious reforms, it was rarely controversial.The historian George W.Cooke referred to it as mild and placid. The Christian Register alsopublished a number of tracts, which were circulated by the UnitarianBook and Pamphlet Society.One 19th century controversy occurred in 1872 when Thomas J.Mumford, the editor of the Register, wrote that the word religiousdid not belong in the name, Free Religious Association (FRA).Thishelped precipitate the Yearbook Controversy.William J.Potter,the minister in New Bedford, Massachusetts, and the secretary of theFRA, later had his name removed from the list of Unitarian ministersbecause he refused to refer to himself as a Christian.The full corre-spondence between Potter and the association was published in theRegister.The circulation of the Register had always been providedthrough subscriptions.Albert Dieffenbach, who was editor of theRegister in the 1920s managed to increase circulation from 3,000 to12,000 subscribers, but it became the subject of a Universalist jokewhen it was reported in the Universalist Leader that a friend of Dief-fenbach s said, When you took over the Register everybody re-spected it, but nobody read it.Now everybody reads it, but nobodyrespects it. There was a long, protracted debate with the Universal-ist editor John van Schaick over the issue of liberty, where Dieffen-bach said there should be no limits to liberty when it comes to mem-bership requirements in local societies.Circulation had declined to3,300 and the paper was a monthly when Stephen Fritchman tookover as editor in 1943.His tenure marked the greatest controversy inthe history of the paper.Fritchman was named acting editor late in1942 and then permanent editor early the next year.In the spring of1941 the paper lost its editorial independence and was made respon-sible to an editorial board under the close scrutiny of President Fred-erick May Eliot.Editorial independence was only the beginning ofhis problems, as Fritchman initially revitalized the paper and in-creased circulation to 8,300 by 1947.A number of critics began toquestion his politics, including his editorials and prolabor activity.In110 " CHRISTMAS1946 a former AUA board member, Larry Davidow, wrote thatFritchman was carrying on a deliberate campaign to use the Christ-ian Register and other agencies as means of proselytizing the Com-munist Party cause (Zwerling, Rituals, p.29).Davidow became partof the Committee of Free Unitarians.Linscott Tyler, who also be-came a member of this group tried to smear Charles Joy, the head ofthe Unitarian Service Committee with accusations of communism aswell.Then he turned on Fritchman.Both Tyler and Davidow tried toconvince the AUA Executive Committee that Fritchman was a cardcarrying member of the Communist Party.The controversy received national attention.Fritchman testifiedbefore the House Committee on Un-American Activities in Washing-ton in October 1946.In 1947 Fritchman was told he must either co-operate with the editorial board or resign as editor.The ExecutiveCommittee suspended him as editor on May 9 and called a specialmeeting of the AUA board for May 20, 1947, days before the AnnualMeeting of the Association.Fritchman was dismissed at this meetingfor his failure to cooperate and his insubordination
