...point, King Saud has gone out of his way to assert his political independence of the U.S. After a four-year trial, Saud politely ejected a Point Four mission on the ground that it was too bossy. In 1953 the Saudi government accepted a military assistance agreement, only to cancel it before it went into effect because it was contingent on too much U.S. supervision. The U.S. was allowed to build the Dhahran airfield itself only with the stipulation that every installation would become Saudi property as soon as completed...
...David F. Edwards, 54, sent the city an ultimatum. Bayonne, which was threatening to raise Esso's taxes another $400,000 a year, must give up any idea of increased taxes, instead cut its operating budget by 10% within two weeks. If it did not, Esso would cancel its $2,000,000 modernization program at the Bayonne plant, and very likely move out altogether-just as Tidewater Oil Co. did two years ago. The Esso plant pays one-fourth of the tax bill of Bayonne (pop. 81,500), has a $1,000,000 monthly payroll...

They may be trapped on the telephone, trying to talk to a reporter as well, leafing through their calendars trying to find a student whose appointment they can cancel so that they can make room for a more urgent case...
...even though Nelson did not have that kind of money. Since Bellanca held all but 3% of the stock, its dividend totaled just about $3,600,000. Instead of paying the dividend, Albert told Nelson to credit Bellanca with the amount. The declared but unpaid dividend would in effect cancel out the $3,600,000 debt to Nelson. Thus Nelson was committed to pay $3,600,000 of its $4,850,000 purchase price, while Albert's Bellanca Corp. paid the remaining...
