Neither British Overseas Airways, which flies from New York to 15 Caribbean points, nor Air France, which has a Mexico City run, may fly passengers between U.S. cities and such a wide array of Latin American points as Lufthansa might be able to do under the proposed agreement. Even worse, said the airline men, the Germans were about to get South American routes that even U.S. airlines have been unable to win. For years, Braniff has been anxious to fly to Colombia...

After spending a full day in careful inspection, Professor Ugo Procacci, director of Florence's Department of Restorations, announced: "The decision to attribute the painting to Piero della Francesca is unanimous.
