...TIME'S piece on fairs [July 16] misses an essential point. Knowing both Seattle's success and New York's bust, I would like to note that most Seattle construction was permanent, leaving a new civic-cultural center like those planned after the upcoming San Antonio and Miami fairs. Such planning achieves lasting results that would otherwise take a decade or more to achieve. This, not costly temporary borax like that at Moses' fair, is the likely future of world's fairs...
Genocidas & Torturers. Real news was light last week: the OAS peace talks remained stalemated, and middle-reading liberal Héctor García Godoy continued to be the best bet for provisional President. Meantime, Junta General Antonio Imbert Barreras and Rebel Colonel Francisco Caamaño Deñó were holding their fire. Not so the new scandal press. After having its fun with General Palmer, Patria (which claims 7,000 readers) ran a picture of a Dominican beauty dancing cheek to cheek with a "Yankee invader." Read the caption darkly: "She will pay for her collaboration." The soldier...
Gunboat Diplomacy. The week started off brightly. General Antonio Imbert Barreras, leader of the loyalist forces, and Colonel Francisco Caamaño Deñó, commander of the rebel army entrenched in downtown Santo Domingo, were honoring the ceasefire.

With evening temperatures 10° cooler than the low lying parts of the state and, more important, a dry climate, Kerrville is highly regarded by those wanting to escape the oppressive humidity of Houston. Watered by the Guadalupe River, the site is crisscrossed with streams, verdant with cypress, oak, pecan and cottonwood. Kerr County has long been a ranching center, and the resort houses often retain the ranch-house look, but with a difference...
...were 752; today only 190 breweries are in business, and many of them have a future about as flat as stale beer. The ten biggest brewers account for 55% of sales, and another 30% belongs to such strong and modern regional brewers as National of Baltimore, Pearl of San Antonio, Schmidt of Philadelphia and Olympia of Washington State. The big marketing battle is between the regionals and the nationals that have set up regional plants to compete with them, such as Budweiser, Schlitz, Pabst, Falstaff and Carling. The smaller breweries are caught between the two; imported beers, which account...
