But against the nebulous idea that a vacuum or a buffer contributes to peace, Britain's Selwyn Lloyd argued cogently last week: "It may well be that the world is a very much safer place if in critical areas there is a direct confrontation of the major parties and not an area of uncertainty...

He plunged a needle into her back and tapped the spinal fluid. Its high cell content buttressed his fears. While Navajo Nelson Bennett worked the field radio to alert the Navajo medical center at Fort Defiance for an emergency admission, Dr. Burkhardt gave Mary Grey-Eyes a massive penicillin injection.
