...transit visas and pay cargo taxes when traveling or moving goods across East German territory to West Berlin. For a city that withstood an all-out Communist blockade in 1948-49, Ulbricht's new restrictions in themselves are little more than a nuisance. Nonetheless, they dramatized anew the perilous state of West Berlin's economic links-a fact that has frightened off both industry and labor...
EIGHTEENTH century France bequeathed to the modern world the concepts of revolution and popular democracy-and last week the French seemed bent on perilously trying to practice both at the same time. As the campaign to elect a new National Assembly got underway, rioting and violence erupted anew in cities throughout France. For a while it looked as though the explosion of police concussion and tear-gas grenades might blot out the appeals for votes by the 2,260 candidates running on broadly diverse platforms in Metropolitan France's 470 electoral districts...

While he will not compare them on other grounds, Civil War Historian Bruce Catton notes at least one "striking" parallel between McClellan and General William Westmoreland. "McClellan was always saying he could do the job if they gave him more troops," observes Catton. "He always wanted more. Finally, Lincoln got tired of this and put him on the shelf. It seems that Westmoreland is in the same position...
