...beneath gas pockets. The only sour note comes from Australia's coal industry, which is afraid that oil and gas would steal its market for generating power. Plentiful petroleum, warns Australian Coal Association Chairman Sir Edward E. Warren, could "destroy the indigenous coal industry on which whole communities depend." The complaint puts some politicians in the unusual position of refereeing a fight between coal and oil before an oil industry even exists...
...Billy Potts owned a tavern in Ford's Ferry, Ky. Its floor was covered with bloodstains; outside, the grounds were filled with shallow graves. Travelers who stayed overnight could not depend on getting up again next morning. Billy's son, a chip off the old block, was caught robbing by two farmers, was forced to leave the state. Years later he returned with a hefty bankroll and a beard. He decided to surprise the folks by not letting on who he was. Not recognizing him, Daddy cheerfully sank a knife into his back, fleeced him, and went...
Public Interest. If industry is to lift Italy out of its economic bog, the country will have to depend heavily on IRI (pronounced eerie). But that is what IRI is there for.

Says IRI's genial President Giuseppe Petrilli: "IRI is the state's fundamental instrument for supporting sectors in temporary crisis...
...domestic political damage from concessions to Panama would outweigh the benefits for his Latin American policies. The "tough" and "pragmatic" approach, revealed last week in Johnson's speech to the OAS and in Assistant Secretary Thomas G. Mann's reported remarks to the assembled U.S. ambassadors, does not depend upon popular approval in Latin America. Neither does it attract popular approval, which the U.S. must have to champion democratic revolution as an alternative to Castro's kind. Therefore, the Administration should be especially careful to exploit every opportunity for attracting public support and conciliating the diplomats it will have...
About 70% of the world's power is still generated by steam, most of which is produced by coal or, increasingly, by oil and gas. Highly industrialized nations depend on improving the efficiency of these sources to meet much of their power need; U.S. utilities now build thermal power plants right on top of coal fields because it is cheaper to transport power than coal, and Britain and France cooperate on an under-Channel cable that feeds French power to Britain at the breakfast power peak, then reverses to feed British power to France at its 5 p.m. dinnertime...
