Varying Needs. "We charge what the market will bear," says Indonesia's Sadli. Indonesia has special reasons for keeping its increases small. It sells most of its oil to Japan, where consumption in early 1975 fell 13% below 1973. Also, Indonesia's latest increase brings the price of Central Sumatra sweet crude, a product highly valued for its low sulfur content, to $12.60 per bbl., and China, which does not belong to OPEC, is marketing a similar crude...
...class neighborhoods, and yet they are also the only councilors to sympathize with the developers and other business interests. Industry, construction and commerical development bring jobs and lower taxes. For people more interested in keeping their paychecks than keeping a few tourists out, this conservative alignment makes good sense. Bear these alignments in mind when checking out some of the key issues in Cambridge...
...socialism is perhaps a social democratic government and national health insurance, then Sweden is indeed "socialist."

Poitier and Cosby are hauled back to New Orleans by Kansas City Mack (John Amos) and his boys, who feel they got bilked and want to work the same ploy on a rival gambler named Biggie Smalls (Calvin Lockhart). Now this is not a movie with jokes to spare. By the time Poitier and Cosby have rerun their plot, the meager supply has been totally exhausted. So has the audience...
...first glance, Swept Away seems to bear a sexist message. Its protagonists are conventional sexual stereotypes. Raffaella (played by Mariangela Melata) is a rich capitalist bitch vacationing on a chartered yacht, most in her element when berating the deckhand who brings her iced coffee for the offensive odor of his sweaty shirt; Gennarino (Giancarlo Giannini) is the long-suffering deckhand, devoted equally to the Communist Party and to machismo. The plot is equally classic: shipwrecked together on a beautiful mediterranean isle, the two characters reverse roles entirely. Proletarian Gennarino humiliates bourgeois Rafaella sadistically, avenging class oppression and affronts...
