Warring among black extremists is also becoming more virulent. Rivalry has sprung up over control of territory, recruitment of new members and access to antipoverty grants. Since New Year's, the feud between California's Black Panthers and Ron Karenga's US has left three dead and five wounded. In New York City, where Black Muslims and various splinter organizations compete, a former bodyguard for Malcolm X, Charles 37X Kenyatta, was critically wounded this month. Kenyatta leads the Harlem Mau Maus. Less than a week later, Kenyatta's friend, Clarence 37X Smith, head of a group...
...pacifica in Latin America. The Soviets hope that local conditions, abetted by U.S. blunders, will play into their scheme of things. At present, their great hope is for making serious inroads in Peru, where the nationalistic military junta is pointedly turning to the Soviets to step up its feud with the U.S. over the American-owned International Petroleum Company. Though Castroism has caused fewer factions in Communism than the other currents, Fidel remains an important influence and a hero to many of the world's youth...

Though impoverished Austria badly needed more practical things after World War II, one of the government's first major building activities seemed quite plausible to the Viennese. It was the $10 million reconstruction of the bombed-out Vienna State Opera...
...United Auto Workers President Walter Reuther compared the corrupt Teamsters Union to a fallen woman, and he headed the drive to expel it from the A.F.L.-C.I.O. Last spring, after he topped off an old feud with President George Meany by leading his own union out of the giant federation, Reuther decided that the Teamsters were not so bad after all. Last week the labor movement's Mr. Clean got together with its scarlet lady in a slogan-bedecked Washington hotel to exchange vows of solidarity forever. The U.A.W. and the Teamsters created something called the Alliance for Labor...
