...Neill broke all precedent last year by inviting the Republic of Ireland's Catholic Premier Sean Lemass to Belfast. It was then that Paisley, fearing a sellout to the Catholics, began stumping Ulster's six counties, attacking everyone from the Pope ("old red socks") to the Archbishop of Canterbury ("another traitor"). "O'Neill might as well try to stop Niagara Falls with a teaspoon." Paisley stormed, "as try to stop our Protestant cause." When Queen Elizabeth arrived in Belfast this month to dedicate a bridge, embittered Catholics promised retaliation; and sure enough, a twelve-pound chunk...
...Agincourt: "The day, my friends, and all things wait for me." Whether the hand holds the scalpel (Dr. Michael DeBakey, 57) or the baton (Leonard Bernstein, 48), it is watched by patient and public with rapt attention. Whether he is a Protestant evangelist (Billy Graham, 47) or a Catholic Archbishop (John Patrick Cody, 58, of Chicago, a U.S. cardinal-to-be), he lends spiritual guidance to attending multitudes.

The motives Beaverbrook ascribed to Baldwin were far more complex. For one thing, Beaverbrook was convinced that Baldwin had never liked Edward personally after they failed to hit it off together on a trip to Canada in 1927. Besides, Beaverbrook held, Baldwin had little regard for Edward's capabilities and resented the King's audacity in expressing skepticism about the value...
...mortar improvements as rapid-transit extensions, street and alley lighting, and 63 miles of new sewers. As the city-hall machine moved into overdrive, bank depositors found among their canceled checks flyers urging a yes vote, police and firemen trod sidewalks distributing literature, and Chicago's Roman Catholic Archbishop John P. Cody resorted to the pulpit to plug the measure. Result: the bonds passed by a 2-to-1 margin...
