...stretched into 45 minutes as President Eisenhower shot questions at the Tennessean. The President bridled once when Albert Gore, carried away, said passionately: "I want my President to call [the Russian] bluff." But for the most part Dwight Eisenhower seemed impressed, asked Gore to submit his proposals in a formal memorandum. Gore did, also talked over his ideas with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and new AEC Chairman John McCone. Under close examination, flaws might appear in Albert Gore's plan, but at least it had the merit of suggesting a way out of an otherwise bitter, abrasive...

But in pressing for the kind of recognition-whether de facto or formal-that would only cement the division of Germany, the Russians are obviously seeking the status quo that Khrushchev told Walter Lippmann is the goal of Soviet diplomacy...
...welcoming the Communists, the handsome naval officer, hero of the revolt that toppled Dictator Marcos Pérez Jiménez, has entered into a formal alliance no Latin politico has tried since the days of Guatemala's hapless Jacobo Arbenz.

Sixtus V (1585-90) corrected the flattering observation of an ambassador that he had "mounted easily" with the admonition...
...Diamond Alkali are mailing letters wishing one and all a very merry holiday, but please do not send any gifts to our employees. Boeing Airplane, U.S. Steel, California Packing, Cutter Laboratories, Morri-son-Knudsen Co. and Dresser Inc. have similar policies, though they do not send out a formal letter. Former General Motors President Harlow H. Curtice did not go that far in laying down a rule of thumb to guide his people but he did send around a memo that no G.M. man should accept a gift he cannot eat, drink or smoke in one day. G.M. and many...
