Probing the Deeps. Hidden from the sun, the black bottom is an unimaginably terrifying land of ancient mountain ranges and valleys, somnolent volcanoes, Gargantuan canyons, bottomless chasms (see map)-a land filled with hiding places for a future generation of deeper-diving submarines. Knowledge of this topography as well as of the mysterious currents that flow there will decide the future's underwater wars. Though the seas cover 70% of the earth's surface, oceanographers have carefully mapped only about a third of the world's ocean floor. The Russians have gone full steam on oceanography, have...
Discovery. Mike's use of so hallowed a table symbolizes no bottomless irreverence for Alaskan tradition, but rather the muscular spirit of the ever-changing, booming vastness that was once a faraway, forgotten frontier.

Neither, if he had his way, would there be room for education. Snarls Hoffa: "I don't have a man working for me who don't come off a truck...
...knows better than Free Enterpriser Graham that his loans will be only a drop in the bottomless Indian bucket, while perhaps 20% of the borrowers are likely to fail in their businesses. But as Graham moved on to the Middle East at week's end to continue his interrupted family vacation, his open-handed demonstration had been worth a hundred propaganda pronouncements on U.S. capitalism. "You don't have to be a millionaire to put up $5,000," said Graham, hoping to encourage other Americans into backing small Asian entrepreneurs. Said Indian Hotelman Mohan Oberoi: "Send...
