...first ever transmitted from the Continent, and came over our new Digitronics Dial-O-Verter. All this may seem like a lot of words, coming awfully fast, from France-but Paris happens to be the central transmission point for the cables to New York from our bureaus in London, Bonn, Rome, and even such African points as Leopoldville and Elisabethville...
...policy toward Europe: to help Western Europe become a strong, independent force of its own, linked by bonds of friendship to a strong, independent U.S. To achieve that aim he offered full risk by the U.S. "My stay in this country will be all too brief," he said in Bonn, "but in a larger sense the United States is here on this continent to stay so long as our presence is desired and required; our forces and commitments will remain, for your safety is our safety.

Said Krone: "Everyone is preoccupied with Cuba, Berlin, Laos-and chickens." Konrad Adenauer confided not long ago that he and President Kennedy have had voluminous correspondence during the past two years, "and I guess that about half of it has been about chickens."
