But there was a strain in his tired voice, and his words, usually oblique and professional, this time were plain and full of passion. The Congo, said Hammarskjold with chilling precision, is "a question of peace or war, and when saying peace or war, I do not limit my perspective to the Congo."

Brookhaven's 30-Bev protons will be shot against other protons, eventually in an 80-in. liquid-hydrogen bubble chamber, the world's largest, which is now being designed. Out of the proton-proton collision will come a weird menagerie of short-lived particles. Many of them will be new to science, and they are almost certain to have properties that no one can imagine today. AGS will reach a long way into...

But any one of the supporting parties could clog up Il Motorino's gas line should he show any of the leftist economic notions or excessive Catholic zeal that have toppled his governments in the past. A major clause in the coalition agreement negotiated by Fanfani provides that if any one of the minority...
