Now, to alleviate at least a little of the misery, the dollars are flowing again: $2,360,000 in Inter-American Development Bank funds for a drinking-water project, frequent liberty visits by U.S. Navy vessels.

A deep-water sailor from the age of eight and Norway's kingpin skipper for the past decade, Harald was named by the Royal Yacht Club to represent his country in the 5.5-meter yacht class at the 1964 Olympics.

Most important, the jury found that the utilities were entitled to dam ages for having been overcharged as far back as 1946, even though the original electrical-conspiracy cases covered only the 1956-60 period. The ruling stemmed from a clause in the law that suspends...
