...KanoóepH or "Van Cleeberrrn," as the Russians call him (he pronounces it "Cligh-burn") has been Topic No. 1 in Russia for a month and a gusher of warm good will that has had more favorable impact on more Russians than any U.S. export-of word or deed since World War II. Ironically, the U.S. embassy was probably the last stronghold in Moscow to become aware of Van's coup; U.S. Ambassador Llewellyn Thompson and his wife had not even made plans to attend Van's finals audition until they were convinced by American contestants that...

Because Soviet-bloc trade with Latin America is still small ($220 million last year) and the trade offensive is still more promise than deed, Washington is keeping cool-but thinking hard about the future. U.S. officials still argue that direct loans to state oil monopolies would be an invitation for other governments to expropriate' U.S.-owned oil companies all over the world.

...Chaillot and around the world went the reassuring picture of an American leader at work. While there were wide differences in interpretation of what the NATO conference was doing and what it did, there was general agreement that Dwight Eisenhower had turned out to be, in both symbol and deed, the key man of the conference. To all appearances he had once more fought his way back to good health, was once more determined to push to the limit his great talents for leadership.
