...adopted in 1934 to thwart Nazi spies hunting German assets that had fled and were hidden abroad. Later Geneva was regarded as the financing center for both extremes in the Algerian war-the French O.A.S. and the Algerian F.L.N. Today some U.S. officials believe that the banks shield dol lars that have evaded U.S. taxes and foreign aid funds diverted by grafters in underdeveloped nations...

Luigi Nono is a gentle man - until provoked. Then, he says, he writes music. Provoked by "neo-Nazism," the "Algerian struggle for liberty" and racial discrimination, among other things, he composed Intolleranza 1960, an opera of social protest that has done some wholesale provoking of its own. Its première in Venice four years ago was interrupted by a hail of stink bombs from the gallery and cries of "This opera makes me sick!" Nono's followers shouted back "Cretins!" "Dirty Fascists!" in a riotous uproar that even for Italy was, as one critic shuddered, "as ugly...

While his henchmen huddled in Cairo with Algerian and Egyptian officials discussing more aid for the rebellion, Gbenye himself turned up in Uganda with the rulers of three East African republics in tow.

...surprising result of French affluence has been a marked increase in French pugnacity. Near the Madeleine in Paris, two motorists quarreled over a parking space, and in the fight that followed one dropped dead of a heart attack. An Algerian became so enraged when his car was sideswiped that he shot the other driver in the head with a pistol. Adman Joël de Cizancourt, 34, was sitting in his parked sports car when a man carrying a suitcase passed close by him. Shouting that the suitcase had scratched his beautiful car, De Cizancourt leaped out and angrily slugged...

...students at the Sorbonne, Existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre, 59, and Novelist Simone de Beauvoir, 57, have been constant companions, though they deliberately refrained from becoming enmeshed in the bourgeois snare of matrimony. But now a little one is on the way-sort of. Sartre is adopting a daughter-Algerian-born Arlette Elkaim, 28, a movie critic on his magazine, Les Temps Modernes. Simone remains his good amie, but unless he leaves a will to the contrary, Arlette will be his legal heir. And while he spurned $53,000 worth of 1964 Nobel Prize money, his novels, plays, and current autobiography...
