Taking the Lead. Said the committee: "Our horizon is too often the narrow confines of the cold war. We must, while we defend ourselves, build toward the world we and other free men seek ... a world grounded in the inherent worth and dignity of the individual . . . Not only by reason of its power, but also because of its proven capacity to combine diverse elements into a stronger whole, the United States is best suited to take the lead in bringing about this mobilization and utilization of the free world's talents...
...Cuba. To the delight of Brazilians, who regard avoiding taxes as a kind of fifth freedom, Ultima Horn reported that the only reason Birrell did not want to go home was a mere matter of income tax evasion. O Globo reported a Chaloupe statement that Birrell wanted to build a $14 million electronics plant in Brazil, and that "it can only be deduced that interests that do not want to lose these markets are causing difficulties." Another newspaper called the waiting Hallisey a mercenary hounding Birrell for a supposed $150,000 reward-a bounty that would make any Brazilian...
...Terrible Twins. Early this month the Laborite Daily Herald (circ. 1,464,773) bannered a new charge against der Alte: DR A. JOINS A-BOMB CLUB IN SECRET.

The offbeat result helps the audience identify Lata. And in Indian movies (TIME, Jan. 5)-three-hour, syrupy soap operas relieved by interludes of pop music-the audience likes to know who is actually carrying the tune. With Lata the moviegoers can hear their favorites...
...police power. Author Gibney finds another way of saying this, in the words of a witty Polish intellectual. In a small Jewish congregation, so goes the story, a young Communist was puzzling about one of Stalin's famous slogans and asked: "Tell me, Comrade Rabbi, can you build 'socialism in one country'?" The rabbi thought deeply. "Yes," he replied finally. "You can build socialism in one country, but you have to live in another...
