...silences in the history of modern Russian literature. Some of the reasons for Babel's failure to fulfill his production quotas are touched on by Ilya Ehrenburg, Lev Nikulin, Georgy Mun-blit and Konstantin Paustovsky, writers and former friends of the author. Their reminiscences compose most of the generous appendix to You Must Know Everything, a collection of newly translated short stories, abrupt prose exercises and journalistic sketches gathered and annotated by Nathalie Babel, the author's daughter and dedicated literary guardian, who now lives...

South Africans are outnumbered by Africans only 4 to 1. White Rhodesians have set themselves the task of staying on top in a country where they are a minority by a ratio...
...British companies are offering lower insurance rates to women. The Royal Automobile Club last month reduced its premiums by 10%; the Zurich Insurance Co. had already cut its rates by 20%. U.S. casualty companies, whose executives admit that women are better risks than men, are not nearly so generous. Many of them offer 10% discounts to women, but only to those aged 30 to 64 who are the sole operators of their cars...
