Finally, at a plenary session in the gilt-and-cream great hall of Kubbah Palace, Nasser proposed a sharing of guilt. "The presence of Baath in the Arab homeland is a necessity," he declared. "The resignation of the Baath ministers from the U.A.R. government in 1961 was a mistake. Accepting the resignations was also a mistake." The Baathist delegates clapped and cheered this burying of the hatchet. In a startlingly un-Arab spirit of amity and compromise, both sides accepted the other's good faith and minimum terms...
...hypertension, a weak heart, a polyp in his digestive tract, asthma, and Allah knows what else. When eleven doctors converged at his bedside, things looked, from the outside at least, pretty grim. It turned out that Saud was complaining about his liver (his own remedy: banana puree in Chantilly cream with five scoops of ice cream for breakfast), and his blood, for which his doctors quickly ordered bottles of plasma as a precaution.

And if you really need some money, take...
After 106 years of peddling milk and ice cream, the Borden Co. next month will move into pickles too. When Borden's acquires a Michigan pickle firm called Aunt Jane's Foods, no mouths will pucker in the modest Madison Avenue building from which robust Borden President Harold W. Comfort, 66, bosses an operation stretching from Argentina to Australia. Milk and milk products still account for 73% of Borden's sales, but Borden's has diversified so widely-into everything from applesauce to acetylene, wall coverings to wax beans-that no one is surprised any longer...
