Stand or Fall. Chief gainer in the Cabinet shuffle is dependable, tough-minded Richard Austen Butler, 59, promoted from the Home Ministry to the newly created post of First Secretary of State, becoming, in effect, heir apparent to Macmillan. But the fact that Macmillan has named "Rab" Butler to the No. 2 Cabinet post does not mean necessarily that he will ever obtain No. 1 Since he is now even more closely tied to the Prime Minister and his policies. Butler's political fortunes largely depend on Macmillan's remaining more or less successfully in office. The vacant...
Bell Telephone, creator of Telstar, favors lower orbits and more of them. Existing rockets, say Bell's men, can lift communications satellites a few thousand miles above the earth, where existing ground apparatus can communicate with them dependably. Telstar, they argue, proved their point last week. But final decision on the kind of satellite to be used will depend on U.S. Government policy and also on foreign governments, which will surely demand voices in any worldwide system of communication. No matter which system is adopted, though, its satellites will be descendants of Bell's granddaddy Telstar...
...Depending on Outsiders. There was also a natural rallying around the government in a time of national crisis, and most Canadians reluctantly had to admit that Diefenbaker's action was generally correct, even if overdue.

A U.S. Treasury Department spokesman figured that Canadian dependence on its own efforts would cost the U.S. $350 million in trade and tourists if it lasted...
...resolutions or dogmatic pronouncements. The class should feel no responsibility for reaching an agreement." Says San Francisco Superintendent Harold Spears: "I think the story of Russia speaks for itself. All you've got to do is teach the facts. You don't have to indoctrinate." Teachers often depend on a parallel study of American institutions: Chicago students are exposed to contrasting quotes on the same subject, such as Stalin and Thomas Jefferson on the rights of the minority. A sixth-grade class...
Protracted Woo. All these efforts to destroy the prevailing Filipino attitude of bahala na (easygoing fatalism) depend largely on U.S. help. As an incentive to foreign investors. Macapagal has made the peso convertible, with good results-the first four months of this year show a $23 million surplus in balance of payments compared with a $27 million deficit for the same period last year. He is hoping to set up a private, U.S.-Philippine development bank. But he is often hamstrung by a Congress still dominated by Garcia's Nacionalista Party, whose members cannot be turned out until...
