...proud holder of a diploma from Paris' Cordon Bleu cooking school, discussed his newly acquired souffle secrets with the New York Times: "Egg whites are beaten by hand with a wire whisk or not at all. You beat and beat. Of course, you may drop dead in the end, but no matter. I don't understand why American cookbooks state 'beat until stiff but still moist.' That's nonsense.

Though vague and erratic, the government's censorship was the tightest invoked by any Western democracy since the end of the war. Amateur censors, hurriedly recruited from the civil service, stood watch at all the wire services and most big daily newspapers, heavily blue-penciled many a story...
