...that only Franco could put a King back on Spain's throne; the Prince feared that after Franco's death antimonarchists in the government would block any such move. Since he knew that his father would never make a deal with Franco, who is in only moderately good health, Juan Carlos decided to go ahead and secure the throne for a Borbon before it was too late. When he is formally crowned, perhaps by Franco, Juan Carlos will take the title that his father intended to use: King Juan III of Spain...

...trouble centers on Muong Soui, an important garrison on the northwestern edge of the strategic Plain of Jars. It straddles vital Route 7, the only good east-west highway in Laos, and controls the gateway to the Upper Mekong as well as access to Route 13, which links the royal capital of Luang Prabang with the administrative capital of Vientiane. Before this year's Communist spring offensive, it was one of three major government outposts in Communist-controlled northeastern Laos. Then, last April, Communist forces began moving on Muong Soui. To relieve the pressure on the garrison, government troops...

Cleveland's great industries have lately made efforts to dump fewer noxious effluents into the Cuyahoga. If their record is still not good, the city's has been far worse. Whenever it rains hard, the archaic sanitary storm system floods the sewer mains, sending untreated household wastes into the river. Sometimes the old mains break, as recently happened on the Big Creek interceptor line. Each day for the past month, 25 million gallons of raw sewage have cascaded from a ruptured pipe, spilling a gray-green torrent into the Cuyahoga and thence into Lake Erie...

...keep the problems of the environment uppermost in their minds. I think that responsible business management is trying to keep the problem of environment uppermost, especially in new developments. The Government should encourage measures to prevent air and water pollution through tax incentives or just by showing how a good environment helps make money. This is something I really believe in. Take a factory that's sitting in greenery. It's clean. Its people are happy. They'll make more money than if it were cluttered up and no one cared...

...Petroleum is a good example of where we could set direction and give incentives-like the oil industry's depletion allowance, for instance. Maybe rather than cut depletion or raise it or whatever, we should tie it more strongly to exploration and research, for example, into new methods of cutting down on pollution. Maybe we could give a similar advantage to other industries and tie it to how they use it. Let's say the automobile industry has some kind of tax incentive to look into other kinds of transportation like steam or electric cars. That might...
