...Angeles' mayoralty elections are nonpartisan, and while Jimmy, 57, is a liberal Democrat and Yorty, 55, is a conservative Democrat, ideology is not playing much of a part in their campaign. Rather, the race is more an extension of the longstanding feud between Democratic Governor Pat Brown and Democratic Assembly Speaker Jesse Unruh. Roosevelt has charged that there is a "sinister alliance between the political machines of Big Daddy [Unruh] and Little Daddy [Yorty]" which "must be stopped and not allowed to take over city government, lock, stock and barrel." Yorty accuses Brown of helping Roosevelt. Brown denies...
...Rents Remain. At week's end it appeared that Kosygin's peregrinations-impromptu as they were-had paid off with a tenuous, temporary and superficial unity within the Communist world. But they did little to serve Moscow's cause in the basic ideological feud with Peking. Neither North Viet Nam's Ho nor North Korea's Kim showed any sign of wanting to attend the March "unity" conference in Moscow, and Mao, for all his seeming cooperation, almost certainly remained opposed to the new Soviet leaders' ideology...
Since the 1960 overthrow and hanging of Strongman Adnan Menderes, Turkish politics has basically consisted of a feud between army-backed Premier Ismet Inönü and the opposition Justice Party formed by Menderes' resurgent followers.

In the hands of Burundi police was Gonsalve Muyenzi, 24, a Watutsi tribesman, a refugee from neighboring Rwanda, and thus a sworn enemy of Ngendandumwe, who happened to be a member of the Bahutu tribe. For centuries the Bahutu had served the towering Watutsi aristocrats (some measure 7 ft. or more) as cattle-tending serfs on the alpine slopes of the former Belgian colony Ruanda-Urundi. Independence, in 1962, established a tribal equality of sorts, but both Bahutu and Watutsi quickly sought more than that...
...thing, the feud between U.S. Ambassador Maxwell Taylor and General Nguyen Khanh (see THE NATION) showed few if any signs of abating. While not speaking to Taylor, Khanh sent season's greetings to American troops in Viet Nam, warmly thanking them for their help in "our struggle for the defense of freedom." Khanh was shuttling back and forth from his resort-headquarters at Cap St. Jacques, where he huddled secretly with the Young Turk officers who, with Khanh, had outraged Taylor by toppling the civilian High National Council. At other times Khanh was seen speeding through Saigon...
