...hurt their own cause. The torn ghettos, if the aftermath of Watts is any lesson, will not be reconstructed. And sadly, most whites lack the intelligence and magnanimity to realize that compassion and sharply escalated governmental spending and attention are called for. They will look for conspiracies, fix their gaze on the H. Rap Browns, call for stricter police control, and encourage their Congressmen to continue reducing anti-poverty spending...

Without the prestige and power of old, the princely life went quickly into decline. Many princes now sit in their drawing rooms amid moldering Victorian knickknacks, with the swords and shields of their martial caste decorating the walls and the reproachful gaze of full-length ancestors in oils staring down on them. Others converted their palaces into hotels. The Rajmata's former kingdom of Gwalior is now a quiet, ordinary part of the state of Madhya Pradesh. The lavish royal guest house is a Girl Scout training center, and the main palace is a museum that charges...

By supporting Midwesterner Romney for the top spot, Chafee presumably is hoping that Michigan's Governor will have to go East for a running mate, and that his gaze perhaps will fall on Rhode Island. But even where the vice-presidency is concerned, being from a small state can hurt. The man in the second spot is supposed to strengthen the ticket by assuring victory in his state, as Texan Lyndon Johnson did in 1960, and thus the bigger...

...weeks, it already has well over $30 million in advance bookings. Visitors' reactions to the courtyard range from "a fabulosity" (an Atlanta attorney) to "the eighth wonder of the world" (a Chicago businessman). Indeed, so many bowled-over guests blurt out "Jeez!"-or stronger-when they first gaze up into 21 stories of space that hotel employees have already dubbed the spot in the lobby where the full height is first glimpsed with a name of its own: Profanity Corner...
