...add zest to his collecting, Colonel Carter has had 863 TIME covers autographed by the cover subjects. Before he is through, he is certain he will have a complete set of all past TIME issues. But the autograph collection will be another matter. Some 800 of the subjects of TIME'S covers had died before he began his collection. Of the remaining 120-odd "possibles" still alive, most are what he calls "Reds and royalty," two categories that have not widely responded to his appeals, though he has the signatures of Yugoslavia's Tito and Italian Communist Palmiro...
...Segregation. In the solid granite Capitol in Raleigh, white-haired Governor Luther Hartwell Hodges, 61, businessman turned politician, totted up some headline statistics that proved the vigor behind his fondest dream: from January to March, industry built some $25,000,000 worth of new plants in North Carolina to add 5,600 new jobs (up 40% over 1958) paying $16 million a year (up 46%) to the state's payrolls.

First step is to build a 230-ft.-high dam near Kosombo (see map), 60 miles northeast of Accra, then add two satellite dams. They would generate 974,000 kw. (100 times as much as produced now in Ghana), back up a man-made lake that would equal the world's biggest (3,500 sq. mi.), which itself would create a new fishing industry to improve the protein-shy Ghanaian diet. Cost...
...would not appoint an envoy to the Vatican. One bishop taxed him with the persecution of Protestants in Catholic Spain. "I deplore a loss of liberty under any circumstances," answered Kennedy. By now not sure what might lie in the bishops' minds, he felt it necessary to add, "I am opposed to forced conversions...
