...stubbornness that brought Hallstein to grief, but he has firmly established himself as master of his house. By delegating more authority than Hallstein, he has transformed the once dispirited commission that serves as the Common Market's Cabinet into a sound and cohesive team. He has repaired the disarray left by Hallstein's pitched battles with De Gaulle, showing that he is willing to compromise with the French without kowtowing to them. Through it all, with a judicious mixture of courage and pragmatism, he has revivified the Common Market as the independent, outward-looking organization its creators intended...
...neutral "bridge" between East and West, while others maintain that West Berlin must remain committed to the West for protection. Caught in between the two factions, Mayor Heinrich Albertz, 52, who was Brandt's successor, last week found himself so isolated that he resigned. Alarmed by the disarray in Berlin, Brandt sent in as a replacement his No. 2 man in the Foreign Ministry.

The army is still riddled with officers and men loyal to Amer, and it is furious over the disarray and disgrace that has fallen on it since the war. Some officers no longer wear their uniforms on the street...
Master Plan. The center is only part of Los Angeles Architect William Pereira's master plan (TIME cover, Sept. 6, 1963) to develop Irvine in an orderly way that will avoid swamping land values all around, block the spreading disarray of the ranch's municipal neighbor to the north. Centered on the University of California's new Irvine campus, for which the company shrewdly donated 1,000 acres in 1960, the plan calls for an industrial park (which already has 60 contracted occupants, including McDonnell Douglas and Xerox) and residential sectors now abuilding to combine into...
