...ill will toward Dulles has been building for a long time. Britain never forgave him for blurting, after the Suez crisis-while attempting to point up the Middle East's low esteem for Britain and France-that if he were an American soldier he would not like to fight beside British and French troops in the Middle East. (DULLES INSULTS OUR FORCES, shrieked London's tabloid Daily Sketch.) France will not forgive Dulles for his support of local movements against French colonial rule in Indo-China, Tunisia and Morocco.

Back home in Ottawa, Ill., ex-Army Private William Girard, 22, out of jeopardy after a Japanese court gave him a three-year sentence (suspended) for killing a woman scavenging on a firing range in Japan, out of uniform after an undesirable discharge, quested for a job and anonymity.

The Argonne National Laboratory at Lemont, Ill. announced its experimental boiling water reactor, put in operation a year ago and originally designed for an output of 20,000 kw. of heat had been safely operated at a level of 50,000 kw., cutting the estimated cost of electricity per kw-h from 5.2? to 3.2?. while that price is still too high to be of commercial use, Argonne estimates that four boiling water reactors like...
