With this emotion-packed preface Cuban Delegate Emilio Nunez-Portuondo last week introduced into the U.N. General Assembly a resolution which, besides reiterating the U.N.'s previous demand for withdrawal of Soviet troops from Hungary, called upon the Russians "to cease the deportation of Hungarian citizens and to return promptly to their homes those who have been deported...
...into Matter. Last week a team of physicists at the University of California told how they created antiprotons artificially and kept them alive long enough to identify them. Drs. Owen Chamberlain, Emilio Segre, Clyde Wiegand and Thomas Ypsilantis worked with Berkeley's Bevatron, a particle accelerator that was built by the Atomic Energy Commission for just such jobs. It can shoot a proton so fast that it carries 6.2 Bev. (billion electron volts) of energy. Physicists had figured that when a proton of this power hits a neutron, it will create a new proton and an antiproton. In such...

It was not a revolution, for there had been no violent upsets in the party centers of power; it was rather an overhauling, a rejuvenation. Trends and processes that had been going on for months came to fruition at Naples. There was. undeniably, some moaning over past mistakes, but the unifying theme was: How can democracy in Italy be strengthened, how can Communism be thwarted...
