Captions are also being strengthened. Headlines and captions now become "flush left" instead of centered, and the margins become wider by one-fourth of an inch. The aim is to make our pages easier on the eye. The index now will have a permanent place on page 2 so that readers will not have to hunt for it. Section headings are being placed in either color or gray bars because . . . well, because the editors think they look better that...
...brink of exercising its power to do good in the world. Such good as never has been done in the history of civilization because we now can muster our moral force, our economic force and we, of course, have the military power to back up our words.

On the Government's petition to a court of appeals, Marovitz's ruling was upheld...
Gerstenberg, who must retire within three years under the same rule that cleared the way for his election, will aim mainly during that period to improve G.M.'s net profits. During the first three quarters of 1971, they rose to $1.4 billion; or a margin of 6.7% on sales of $21 billion. That was well above the strike distorted margin of 3.2% last year, but still far below G.M.'s 10.3% in 1965. Gerstenberg holds most of the company's critics in no great esteem and once reprimanded a former G.M. executive who had made some slightly...
