I
do not share Mac–
donald's assumption that socialism promises a moral and literary regenera–
tion.

Some of our readers may have been puzzled by the fact that the
author of "Genesis of 'Swann' " in the last issue was
Alfred
Vigneron on
the cover, and
Robert
Vigneron elsewhere. The correct name is Robert,
and
M.
Vigneron is a member of the Department of Romance Languages
of the University of Chicago. How "Alfred" crept in ·we don't know–
possibly some one was thinking of Alfred De Vigny. We wish to express
our apologies to Professor Vigneron for the mistake, and to thank him for
his good nature about it.
