Most dramatic change of fiscal heart last week was in West Germany. On the eve of the Anderson-Dillon visit, Chancellor Konrad Adenauer abruptly cut his country's cackle about being short of spare cash: his Cabinet hastily announced "complete agreement" to launch West Germany's first real foreign-aid program in 1961.

Divorced by Josephine Dillon in 1930, he married Maria (Rhea) Franklin Prentiss Lucas Langham, a Houston socialite whose first marriage had occurred before Gable was born: despite his obvious virility, he apparently needed the comfort and security provided by older women. The first Mrs. Gable is now 76, lives alone in Hollywood with her chihuahua, and provided a startling contrast last week when, white-haired and frail, she was photographed looking at a picture of her young husband of years ago. Rhea, now 70, lives alone in Houston...
