...coming "million-dollar Rembrandt sale" months ago, and prepared for it by photographing the painting well in advance for the cover. Art Editor Bruce Barton and Researcher Deborah Hanson dug deep into the sale of previous great paintings at great prices, and the result is an art bonus-four pages of color reproductions of these masters. Then, building around last week's auction, Barton (with the help of correspondents in London, Paris and Rome) delved into the fascinating story of today's expensive art market. Finally Barton and Researcher Hanson were among the privileged few, along with dealers...
...dividend since the record auto-sales year of 1955. Avowedly based on the prospect of fast year-end auto sales-because of the August auto strike, G.M.'s third-quarter earnings were off 1.5% from a year ago-the G.M. dividend not only gave a $143 million Christmas bonus to 867,000 stockholders but also buoyed up confidence throughout the economy...

A Columbia victory...
Today, with Trujillo gone, Balaguer is left to hold the restless country together -at least until the promised free elections next May. A strong man would find the task difficult. Cut off from much of its normal hemisphere trade and the normal bonus on U.S. sugar-quota sales, the economy is in near collapse. Politically, the tensions grow more dangerous each week as the long-throttled opposition rises to take advantage of the new "democratization" of Balaguer violently resisted by the dead dictator's henchmen. Of little help is Ramfis Trujillo Jr., who commands the military and professes support...
