...theater proves neither personal in appeal nor panoramic in effect; it is too diffused to have impact as a story, too restricted for vast horror as a scene. A Diary of Anne Frank, by remaining the chronicle of a girl and confining its tragedy to a garret, could expand a family's fate into that of an entire race.

Opposition from doctors, who believe resorting to assistance of midwives (even trained ones) is a step backward, has hampered efforts to expand the profession in the U.S. and some other nations.

The committee, guided by Rueff, architect of the successful franc devaluation in 1958 and a fervent apostle of free enterprise, and Louis Armand, postwar boss of the French nationalized railroads and later first president of Euratom, found that plenty ails French business-much of it a legacy of protectionism...
