...British Physicist Otto Frisch once said: "Uranium is a prima donna difficult to seduce." While other European nations incorporated American expertise into their atomic power industries, France under Charles de Gaulle proudly clung to its own nuclear technology. The country's four atomic power plants use natural uranium, the only nuclear fuel available to France in large amounts. The least fissionable of atomic fuels, natural uranium requires costly installations. The system has been a technical success but an economic failure. Says Marcel Boiteux, general manager of Electricité de France, the state-controlled power network: "The cost of electricity...

It does not have anything startlingly new to say, but if you want a rest from being startled, lie back in your hammock and listen; it will grow...

...Connecticut court, four Negro boys were convicted by an all-white jury in October of raping a 14-year-old white girl named Donna Papineau. One of them, 16-year-old Gary Palmer, was sent to the state reformatory at Cheshire. His two brothers, 17 and 19, along with a 19-year-old cousin named Arturo Palmer, a college-scholarship winner, were given prison terms ranging from nine to 16 years. The only eyewitness was Donna, who testified that the boys forced her into a car in Stamford and took her to an apartment where all four beat and raped...
