WITHOUT A CRYSTAL BALL and with no faith in our special sensitivity to coming events (writing as we do in late October of the preceding year), we have no confident picture of the world to which this issue of January 1973 will be going out. We do not know who will be President, though we have our lively suspicions, nor whether the cruellest, bloodiest of wars will have come to some sort of conclusion, though we have our desperate hopes. But one thing we can be sure of, and that is, it is time—it is …

ANTICIPATING a presidential election, with its quadrennial testing of national purpose, shortly after the appearance of this October 1972 issue of THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY, we call attention to the timeliness of articles dealing with the American dilemma in Southeast Asia, the cultural strain of an expanding technology, the brain glut of unemployed scientists as a special instance of that strain, and the evidence, slight as yet but worrisome, of a new barbarism bred by what the McLuhanites call the "cool" medium TV. This timeliness is part luck and part planning. Out of the ever increasing …

THIS TENTH Summer Literary Number of ours has been a goodly while in the making. On a tour of our files we discover that some eighteen months ago we were discussing the present issue with Professor PRESTON M. BROWNING, JR., of the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle (but at that time, inconveniently for us, and somewhat to our envy, migrating between a base in France and another in the neighborhood of Oxford). The point was that we very much liked his study of "Hester Prynne as Secular Saint'' but could not promise publication earlier …

THERE ARE LUXURIES no editor can afford, like closing up shop on a balmy spring day with the rationalization that there is nothing new under the sun and of making quarterly magazines there is no end and much writing is a weariness and a vexation of the flesh. To these limited and self-serving truths we are quarterly constrained to oppose the recollection that however little our efforts accomplish we would accomplish nothing if we made no efforts. The fact that our problems are perennial does not let us off the perennial struggle to ameliorate them. …

IN A GALLANT EFFORT to stay on top of the news-no easy matter for a quarterly journal in swiftly changing times, and with a presidential surprise-of-the-month to distract us-we have updated copy, made changes in galleys, and on one occasion inserted fresh copy into our almost sacrosanct page proofs. This currency we owe to the vigilance of our authors, one of whom submitted new copy with the desperate comment that he believed he had now allowed for every possibility except a presidential defection to Russia!

IN THIS ISSUE our first article is a timely discussion …

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

WE BEGIN this thirteenth year of THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY with an October number devoted to the most current of topics, among them such challenging and perhaps determining issues as the outcome of the Strategic Arms Limitations Talks between the U.S. S. R. and the United States and the related struggle of Western Europe to achieve strength by unification. Turning our attention to more specifically national interests, we discuss changing attitudes toward the economics of the Welfare State, the mindless sloganeering of Right and Left, and the problems of decision-making with respect to our environment. On a lighter note, but depressing …

THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY regretfully announces the resignation from its editorial board of Professor ROBERT BLUNK, whose increasing responsibilities as a teacher in the Art Department of Kansas State College, a consultant on numerous art projects, a member of the Kansas Cultural Arts Commission, and a practicing artist have left him, as he feels, with too little time for editorial duties which are growing increasingly heavy themselves. His successor has not yet been discovered.

COMES JULY and the editors take their yearly vacation from worrying about the fate of the world, which looks both unpleasant and imminent, and concern themselves instead with literature, which concerns itself with the individual. In short, our Summer Literary Number has come round again, and as usual the emphasis is upon American authors. Not that we have a conscious bias, even though the editor-in-chief teaches American literature to college students who so far have been generously willing to find it relevant-and the more contemporary the more relevant. But it has occurred to us, and …
