...towering Negro named Henri Christophe tore the white center out of the French tricolor and proclaimed himself emperor of the world's first black republic. Nine years of bloody rebellion had, in fact, led to the extermination of Haiti's white population. Today Christophe's flag, a somber red and blue banner, still flies over the presidential palace in Port-au-Prince--a reminder of a painful past...
...great Jesuit paleontologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was forbidden to publish his nontechnical works during his lifetime. In recent years, three of France's finest theologians-Jesuit Henri de Lubac and Dominicans Yves Congar and M. D. Chenu-have been temporarily relieved from teaching posts and forced to submit their writings to the Holy Office for special censorship.

The wine presses and bottling machinery are in good order and ready to process the bumper grape harvest expected this month, although ex-Owner Borgeaud took the formula for his red wine with him to France...
...empowered only to negotiate a test-ban agreement, he expects to "explore" other cold war problems, such as Berlin and Russia's failure to enforce the Laotian neutrality pact. On those matters Khrushchev so far did not appear to budge. Talking to Belgium's Foreign Minister Paul-Henri Spaak in Kiev last week, Khrushchev said: "Berlin is the foot that Kennedy has in Europe. Every time I want to, I'll stamp...
