...sectarian demonstrations, including last week's annual parade to celebrate the end of the Catholic siege of Londonderry in 1689 (see box). In past years the parade, sponsored by the militantly Protestant Orange Order, has frequently deteriorated into a virulent, Catholic-baiting free-for-all. Chichester-Clark chose not to cancel the parade...
...Indonesians. They immediately rejected the one man, one vote formula, largely because the few thousand literate Papuans of the coastal settlements, who had prospered under the Dutch, were obviously hostile.

For this purpose, they chose 1,025 "people's representatives," who allegedly spoke for all Papuans. The Indonesian army warned that it would not be gentle with dissidents. "Many of us didn't agree to Indonesian control, but we were afraid," one of the delegates told TIME Correspondent David Greenway, who visited West...

The uncomplicated plot turns on the developing love affair...
Full Circle. Peter Kropotkin was a prince of Imperial Russia and, as the Irish say, a prince of men. He could have been a pampered and powerful member of the Establishment he chose to fight against; he cheerfully endured exile and long imprisonment but showed none of the pride, power mania or personal deviousness that disfigure the image of so many revolutionaries. As a child, he had slept during a court ball in the future Czarina's semi-sacred lap, and he died (at 78) safe, as it were, in the bosom of Stalin, only a troika...
