Authorities said, however, that Eisenhower has given no pledge he would go to a summit meeting if the foreign ministers fail to ease tensions. The actual language of the U.S. note, it was said, will follow closely that in Eisenhower's speech eight days ago. He then promised to consider a summit meeting if developments justify...
Though Mr. Miller has expressed admiration for Bertolt Brecht, he is unwilling to follow him into the openly, almost abstractly, political drama. His play centers on three carefully humanized beings--a triangle, in fact. One would not expect adultery to be vitally involved with a matter so superficially asexual as the Salem witch trials, especially in the works of so high-minded an author.

...Follow the Leader. Though the company gave no details about its six-cylinder, 108 in.-wheelbase car, it is known to be seriously considering producing an economy-size Edsel for the 1961 model year in addition to the compact car.

Such activity brought I-told-you-so nods at American Motors, which has climbed into fifth place in sales with its compact Rambler.

If they do, compact-car sales should reach an annual rate of 3,000,000 units by 1963. The upheaval that is in evidence in the automobile market...
Presumably some of the authors with whom the new partners worked before will follow to the new firm. One obstacle to an early mass switch: a clause in standard publishing contracts requiring authors to give their publishers first refusal on their next book. Says Bessie of this clause: "I am not in favor of any devices to tie a writer to his publisher." As an inducement to new authors ("We hope to publish the best we can"), the partners are considering more lucrative terms for writers. One of the trio's projects: a line of high-quality paperbacks...
