...which is about one-fourth the amount that private industry normally invests in capital improvements. One other result of the deflationary policy has been a jump in unemployment, which rose last month by 100,000, to 370,000. Reflecting some Britons' fears of depression-style mass layoffs, one cartoonist drew a portly Wilson in a wide-lapelled 1930 suit with a breadline in the background. At the same time, the Labor government's spending has expanded despite Wilson's promise of restraint. In September, public-housing starts topped private housing...

In his 32 years on the police beat, Al Lewis has proved as skillful at promoting new police techniques as he has at uncovering scandals among Washington's finest. Cartoonist Herblock, who, it is said, has "destroyed more psyches in Washington than any other individual," remains as scathing as ever...
SUPERMAN'S troubles as chronicled by Cartoonist Jules Feiffer, are readily recognizable. It sometimes seems as if most of the U.S. population were engaged in disassembling each other's psyches, second-guessing motivations, and ferreting out symptoms.

Also rehearsing is The Apple Tree, the first musical directed by Mike Nichols; it is a triple bill loosely lifted from the writings of Mark Twain, Frank Stockton and Cartoonist Jules Feiffer. The unifying forces are the theme "man, woman and the devil," and score and lyrics by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick, who did Fiddler on the Roof. A final derivative musical is Cabaret, which in earlier incarnations was Christopher Isherwood's The Berlin Stories and the John van Druten drama I Am a Camera. With Jill Haworth in the old Julie Harris role, it is already...
