...sell. Polish universities dropped compulsory-and widely scorned-cram courses in "Rudiments of Marxism-Leninism," now offer more flexible discussion courses on "Main Problems of Marxist Philosophy." Grade schools offer a new course called "civic education" directed at convincing children of "the superiority of the socialist system over the capitalist system," mainly by studying the party organization and local government in action...
...togethernesses" to combat the "five excessives" (excessive reports, excessive documents, excessive meetings, excessive persons in office, excessive general appeal) and two remembrances, which can be applied in the search for "sweetness."

Apparently the increased production of cocoa in Nigeria and the Ivory Coast had little to do with the falling price. Azikiwe is justified in condemning the mixture of "progressive and reactionary tactics" which the U.S. has employed...
Bridges to Pest. Trade with the West is one thing; adoption of Western economic devices is quite another. Though Rumania has yet to employ such capitalist devices as profit incentives and supply-demand marketing, Poland and Hungary are working in that direction. But it is East Germany and Czechoslovakia that lead the region in dynamic planning. Long dogmatic in its imitation of the Soviet pattern, the Czech party last December took...
