Publications
[edit]- Packaged Thinking for Women, a quarterly pamphlet written by Lucille Cardin Crain and Ann Burrows Hamilton (née Martha Anne Burrows; 1903–1976),[1][2] a lawyer, was sent to 10 million women. First published in Autumn 1948 as a supplement to the magazine American Affairs OCLC 637013158 (all editions); c/o the National Industrial Conference Board, Inc., 247 Park Avenue, New York. OCLC 10964161 (all editions) Editors included William Starr Myers of Princeton and Louis H. Haney (1882–1969), professor of economics at New York University. For her contention that textbooks are heavily slanted, she drew upon quotes from John T. Flynn.[3]
- The Educational Reviewer was founded in 1949 by Lucille Cardin Crain (née Lucille Cardin; 1901–1983), a conservative activist whose primary interest was in – as she stated in 1951 – "rooting out radical influences in American education." In each issue, arch-conservative academicians and writers offered their views of high school and college textbooks as evidence of collectivist content and the like. The publication, for the first three years, was chiefly financed by William F. Buckley, Jr. The Reviewer was published for the Conference of American Small Business Organizations, Committee on Education. The publication's executives included Lucille Cardin Crain, Secretary and Editor-in-chief; George Dudley Hawkins, Sr. (1885–1966), Chairman.
- Radio show, broadcast by WGN Mutual, Americans, Speak Up! aired Sundays at 10:15 PM, hosted by Bill Slater, produced by America's Future, Inc., 210 East 43rd Street, New York. John T. Flynn joined forces with America’s Future in 1950.
- In 1947, Crain criticized the National Council of Catholic Women for its support of the New Deal.

[See FBI HQ 157-758, #20; SAC Miami to J. Edgar Hoover.] Davison was the Council's leader.
