...President and his family: one of his brothers is regarded as the grey eminence behind the President, another is an influential Roman Catholic bishop, a third the governor of central Viet Nam. His pretty sister-in-law, Madame Ngo (TIME, Jan. 26), has little difficulty "persuading" her fellow Deputies in the Assembly to do as she says-no one dares oppose her. Continually threatened by Ho Chi Minh's Communist North Viet Nam, President Diem rules strongly, spends more money on jails than on schools. South Viet Nam must be scored a pro-Western country with authoritarian overtones...
Living with a son and a cluster of bodyguards in the Jaragua Hotel, Batista and his crew present a picture of wariness. One day last week the trigger-cock sound of a purse snapping shut in the hotel lobby made a group of his fellow Cuban exiles swivel around.

Trujillo's mouthpiece newspaper, El Caribe, outrightly told Batista to "get out," but he has nowhere to go. France last...
Matter of Contacts. Before he left Harvard Law, Cushing married blonde, blue-eyed Justine Cutting, socialite daughter of Dr. Fulton Cutting of New York, professor of physics at New Jersey's Stevens Institute.

Another thing I like about TIME is the way it makes everything in Washington so clear, so that a fellow like me can know for sure who the good guys and the bad guys are. Like for example your story about the missiles where you show that "Defense Secretary Neil McElroy, backed by the best intelligence there is" has it all over "Democratic Presidential Aspirant Stuart Symington who was...Secretary of the new Air Force (1947-50), when the U.S. was asleep at the missile switch." This political mess sure is ugly, but TIME makes it easy to see where...
...just wanted to thank you, Mr. Auer, and all the folks who work for TIME for the pleasure you brought me and all those useful facts. I don't know what I'd do in my conversational circles without TIME, and I know that all my fellow college students feel the same way. We're grateful, sincerely and deeply grateful. Yours, Alfred Friendly, Jr. Cambridge 38, Mass...
