Davis was impressed most by the "tremendous courage of the local Negroes and the while Alabamans who joined in the march."

...good deal of the credit for this must, of course, go to the actors. Anthony Quinn--well, sooner or later he had to play a grizzled Greek. He's always looked like Zorba the Greek should look.

Another effect was to so discourage business expansion that the French economic growth rate, which De Gaulle aims to stabilize at about 5% annually, is likely to be only...
