Goan Age, a leftwing publication of the 1950s, is critical of the stances of 
the then socialist leader Rammanohar Lohia. A quote from the Feb-Mar 1954 issue 
of the mag edited by G (Gerald?) Pereira from Apollo St at Fort, Bombay. It 
says --

What a contrast my countrymen!

Dr Ram Manohar Lohia

In 1946 (Congress Socialist)

"Look not to Delhi nor to UNO for your deliverance; your freedom lies in you. 
Five lakh of full democrats can shake the Portuguese into submission."

In 1953 (Praja Socialist)

"I appeal to His Holiness the Pope, to use his good influences and press upon 
the Rulers of Portugal to grant Civil Liberties in Goa."
