...delegates remained wary. "He gave a nice speech." said one of them afterward, "but actions speak louder than words. Nothing he said here this morning erased his actions taken against the steel industry." The business community had cause for concern.

But the fact is that as a millionaire's son with no experience in any calling but politics, the President has led an economically sheltered life-and he does not seem to understand business or businessmen very well. Businessmen across the country are repeating...

Afterward, pressed for further comment, she said diplomatically: "I am deeply honored to have been invited by the Queen to lunch. I thought the Queen's clothes were just lovely."

...background practically everywhere they go, almost as if it were following them around like a little dog. To conceal such defects, Director Minnelli pours on the martial music and the Metrocolor. When war is declared, the screen turns such a bright blood red that for about half an hour afterward everything looks green. And the Four Horsemen-the Biblical war, pestilence, death and conquest-gallop across the sky at intervals like a belly-clenching commercial for stomach pills...
