...patience stretched to the breaking point, Betancourt at first ordered the arrest of every one of the country's estimated 40,000 Communists, Castroites and far-leftists, but later amended the order to cover only "activists and terrorists." The incident proved once more that Castro is determined to export his revolution, and that Venezuela's democratic, reform-minded President, whom the Reds have been after for years, is still target No. 1. As an Organization of American States committee recently reported: "There is no doubt that the Castro regime has chosen Venezuela as its primary objective...
...Considering the continuing U.S. deficit in international payments, there could conceivably be a benefit in having at least a few U.S. dollars turned back at the border. Yet that effect might be offset by the new sales tax on building materials, which could seriously hinder U.S. export sales to Canada...
What Coexistence. Castro's talk of coexistence was nothing new. He has been hinting at it ever since Khrushchev left him high and dry during the October missile crisis.

Result: U.S. exports have since...
...Hill Mob, as Fleet Street inevitably christened it, was still at large-probably, guessed Scotland Yard, holed up within metropolitan London. Unlike Alec Guinness' mob, which melted down its loot into solid-gold Eiffel Tower souvenirs and shipped them to Paris, the real-life quartet probably aimed to export its bullion to India, where gold fetches twice the world market price. "I see no reason why they should be caught," said one expert. "They have a market for it all ready. It's that kind...
