...long interview with a New York Times correspondent last week, Ramfis pleaded for a resumption of U.S. diplomatic relations, spoke gloomily of the threat of a full-scale revolt, possibly within his own armed forces, unless other nations prop him up. Without their "moral support," he said, "there will develop here a problem worse than in Cuba." Ramfis also insisted that he has no intention of running for President next May, and added that as far as he knows none of his relatives plan to run either...
...Still Developing. General Dynamics, which was late getting into jets, has been hit with one of the highest product development costs in history. To develop its Convair 880, 880M and the long-range 990 (which is not yet certified by the Government), the company has spent $350 million.

The junta wasted no time in swooping down on the rampant press, quickly outlawed 76 newspapers and 305 agencies, imprisoned 200 bogus newsmen. Chastised, the press now ventures only mild jabs at the junta and completely avoids direct criticism of Pak.* We don't think we should go too far in criticizing the military government, because keeping the business going is more important than speaking...
...finds some of its news in the Pentagon, or in Bizerte; other news is made in concert hall or scientist's laboratory. But some of our best result from a story idea that just pops into a writer's head, and which he then sets out to develop. Such an idea was TIME'S much-discussed story last year on non-books. This week's Education section has another such inspired exploration of a familiar but unrecognized phenomenon. Education Editor Robert Shnayerson got to thinking about the proliferation of organizations whose initials...
