...likely course of the economy for the year ahead. Tax Expert Joseph Pechman described the situation as "desperate," and Arthur Okun, former chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, worried that the economy "is in a tailspin." Liberals Robert Triffin and Robert Nathan showed their concern by wearing BATH (for "Back Again to Hoover") buttons...
...life, the flow of myth and history subjects abated as he went deeper than any earlier painter had gone into the structure of color. At Petworth, enjoying the relaxed and eccentric patronage of Lord Egremont, he produced paintings like Music Party, Petworth: its forms dissolving in a bath of russet light would look extreme for Monet in 1895, let alone in England 60 years earlier.

Today the same package sells for $2-a price that Mrs. Edlund concedes is "ridiculous." She is merely passing along to customers astronomical wholesale price increases on a wide variety of items; for example, an importer of bamboo magazine racks has recently doubled the price to $8. The prices are discouraging many potential buyers and Mrs. Edlund has fired her only salesgirl. Though her husband...
