...burden of action falls on the U.S.-a fact that both Britain's Prime Minister Eden and Secretary of State Dulles clearly recognized in their public statements last week. But this time U.S. planners will not be caught napping. Since last May experts of the State, Commerce, Interior and Defense Departments and the Office of Defense Mobilization have been charting their course. In August, within a fortnight after Colonel Nasser's Suez seizure, the ODM had in hand a general "Plan of Action," now being worked out in detail by a crack Middle East Emergency Committee (made...
Mollet's public loan seems to be straight fiscal poison for France. In interest charges alone the new bonds will cost the government $2,100,000 next year, and, given continued inflation, their redemption could prove a ruinous burden on the government of 1971. (Had a similar loan been floated in 1949, the government would now be obliged to pay out $250 for every $100 worth of bonds originally issued.)

And like a poker game at 3 a.m., inter-European trade is getting out of hand because Germans are cornering all the money. But wait until the Germans have to burden themselves with rearming, as we do, said their competitors hopefully, and floods of Volkswagens will no longer swamp world markets...

But a closer look shows her to be lively and natural in expression. Again, she seems at first to carry far too heavy a burden on her thin, soaring neck, but the strain induced by the weight of the crown is resolved in peace by the upward lift of the quiet mouth, wide eyes and winged brow...
...delicate for them to earn a living and awarded them pensions for life. Tubercular Jazz Pianist Romano Mussolini, 28 (TIME, Jan. 30), will get $112 a month; his sister Anna Maria, 27, partially crippled from a polio attack in childhood. $192 a month. The pair will not burden Italy's grandly evasive taxpayers; the support funds will come from their father's confiscated estate...
