...reaches Paris next month, No. 3 man behind President Eisenhower and Secretary of State Dulles will be Democrat Adlai Stevenson. For six months Dulles has been trying to fit Party Leader Stevenson into the foreign-policy picture as a symbol of bipartisanship, finally figured that a NATO assignment would fill the bill. But arrangements were touchy. Dulles wanted Stevenson to become Ambassador to NATO, a job that would empower him to head preparations for the December meeting, follow through on its decisions...
...income to the nation's health insurance and unemployment fund, and Britain's imperturbable bureaucracy is intent on allowing the fewest possible exceptions to the rule. Some months ago the Ministry of Pensions and National Insurance sent one Harry ("Stopper") Corke its blanks to fill out, got them back with a note from Corke scribbled on the back: "I do not need these cards.

Friends, relatives and clients put up $250,000, and Karl sold $500,000 in stock. Mortgage Guaranty soon signed up to guarantee mortgages for 30 savings and loan associations in the Milwaukee area...

Anything but original as a plot-but Author Françoise Mallet-Joris, still only 27, has already proved (The Red Room, TIME, July 16, 1956) that she can reach elbow-deep into suppressed human feelings and dredge up more than enough to fill out her simple framework. She writes about her heavy provincial countrymen with the tough sureness of a Belgian farmer calculating the points of a work horse...
