...feud ended a stormy relationship that began in 1939 at the New York World's Fair. Soulé, who ran the French restaurant in Flushing Meadow, hired Franey as a poissonier (fish chef). After the fair, Soulé decided to open Le Pavilion, and brought along Franey. Seven years ago, he made Franey head chef, told him: "You and I are getting married. It's going to be very stormy, but we have no right to part." But last week the marriage was on the rocks. Choked Soulé: "He was like...
...tacking hopeless civil rights riders on to favorable labor bills, will effectively block the bills. Despite this sound suspicion, Meany's public blast against Powell backfired, brought to the surface some old inter-union disputes that threaten to split the A.F.L.-C.I.O. In particular, it rekindled a smoldering feud between Meany and able, aging (70) Asa Philip Randolph, head of the Sleeping Car Porters union and conspicuously the only Negro in the A.F.L.-C.I.O. high command.

Still, the telegram served to dramatize the pilots' union feud with General Quesada's administration: a feud based principally on the fact that in his 13 months as boss of civilian and military air operation, tough, dedicated Pete Quesada (TIME, July 6) has cracked down mercilessly on slipshod maintenance and flying procedures that have bedeviled the airlines for years...
...Guard-ists, after mauling each other, are too beat to put up much of a fight against the smoothly functioning Democratic Party of six-times Governor G. Mennen ("Soapy") Williams and the United Auto Workers' Walter Reuther. Last week word leaked out that the old Republican feud had erupted into a name-calling, table-thumping session starring Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfield for the Old Guard and Henry Ford II, financial mainstay of the G.O.P. liberals...
