...British hero. As a backdrop for heroism, the U.N. of U Thant is not an entirely satisfactory substitute for the empire of Victoria, but the British press, starved for tales of British valor in distant places, splashed Lawson of Leopoldville all over the front pages. Henceforth, trumpeted the Daily Express, he would be "known to the world as Dick the Lionheart...
...first two of these aims are vital not only to an enlightened foreign and domestic policy, but to the very survival of politics in the cold war.

Diners' Club, the granddaddy of the card clubs, watched profits from business with 1,200,000 cardholders slip 21% during the first half of the current fiscal year, under the pressure of increased competition and the recession. Disenchanted, after twelve years of catering exclusively to the credit demands of wining, dining and traveling Americans, Diners' Club last year bought an industrial finance...
