...kind of working handbook of community development: the Brooks were inventive, and many of the techniques they experimented with can stand other Volunteers in good stead. They used a variety of ways to scare up money for new projects: tapping local businessmen and expatriates for donations of cash and equipment, digging into their own pockets, and soliciting money and materials from friends in the States. I have long felt the Peace Corps needs to revise its dogma on equipping Volunteers with money and supplies. The official line holds that the Volunteer should offer only himself, not material aid, because such...
...architect, Wiesenthal survived five years at Mauthausen and other concentration camps, helped forge his wife's "Christian" papers to spirit her out of the Warsaw ghetto; together, they lost 87 relatives to the Nazis. Since the war's end, he has carried on his search, helped by cash contributions from many parts of the world. In his new book, The Murderers Among Us (to be published this month in the U.S. by McGraw-Hill), Wiesenthal meticulously documents the fevers and frustrations of hunting Nazis. His search for Stangl followed much the same painstaking process that Wiesenthal had earlier...
...couple of other top officers were told about the arrangement. They were required to sign a national-security pledge that they would never reveal that information-at the risk of a maximum 20-year prison sentence for violating its terms.

...salary climbed to $20,578 a year, but she received only two paychecks in the past two years. She had authorized no one to cash her checks-which ended up in Powell's account-and someone else signed "Y. Marjorie Flores" (the name she used for payroll purposes) without her knowledge on the 19 checks shown her at the hearing. The handwriting, she allowed, "does look familiar...
Will S.D.S. suffer the problems of Control Data, whose 1965-66 earnings stumbled when it ran short of cash amid a similar expansion? Palevsky is unconcerned, even though S.D.S. last year boosted its debt from less than $2,000,000 to more than $16 million, built a fifth new plant and increased employment to 2,900. Reflecting their own confident computations, Wall Street investors have pushed S.D.S. stock up 42 points to $84.50 since October, doubling the value of Pioneer Palevsky's 15% shareholding to $27 million-a pretty fair dividend on his original 1961 investment...
