Muggeridge, former editor of the humorous weekly Punch and one of Britain's most outspoken social critics, declared that "even sex, which gave mankind its first big laugh, has become a serious matter." "An unholy alliance of adver- tisers, pornographers and head- shrinkers has moved in on it, driving the poor clowns away," he wrote in the left-wing weekly New Statesman in an article of the "decline" of humor. "Class, another valuable piece of humorists' real estate," Mug- geridge continued, ** been made the object of a takeover bid by resentful beneficiaries under the welfare state. ARCHBISHOP TOPS "As for the church, the Arch- bishop of Canterbury has stolen the show by being funnier than any professional comedian could hope to be, and no one else can get in on the act." According to Muggeridge, "The area of life in which humor is permissible is steadily shrink- g. He blamed the threat of atomic war.
