...nations (France, Germany, Italy and Benelux) went along cheerfully with its expansionist schemes to abolish coal and steel tariffs and to outlaw cartels. But in the past six months, slackening European demand for coal, plus U.S. competition, has stacked up 30 million tons of unsold coal (TIME, March 2 et seq.). Fortnight ago, when the High Authority of the community ordered its members to restrict the production and import of coal, France, Germany and Italy rejected this supranational solution in favor of individual national measures...
...1930s, such confirmation was not forthcoming. (In 1936 Leger visited him in Philadelphia, was amazed to find "anything like this going on in America.") Carles began painting and repainting the same canvases until they were too heavy to lift. The World War II migration of Paris painters -Chagall, Mondrian et al.-to Manhattan finally produced the understanding audience Carles longed for, but it was too late.

...That Means a Liar." The trial of proud, brainy Lewis Lichtenstein Strauss, 63, is the most glaring case in a campaign of delay and harassment that Senate Democrats are carrying on against President Eisenhower's appointees (TIME, May 4 et seq.). Fortnight ago Ike pointed out that 47 major appointments were still awaiting Senate confirmation. But Strauss is also a victim of a personal vendetta waged against him by New Mexico's Democratic Senator Clinton P. Anderson, Agriculture Secretary under Harry Truman and now chairman of Capitol Hill's Joint Atomic Energy Committee...
