...campaign could have demanded such conciliatory measures, then taken credit for them when they came. But it did not, scorning Bayard Rustin's earlier list of reasonable, attainable goals. Instead, the Southern Christian Leadership Council's inner circle running the campaign demanded drastic change in America's economic system, including blanket income guarantees to the poor. No such metamorphosis in the welfare system could occur without long, acrimonious debate. To the end, S.C.L.C. leaders refused to demand anything the Government could give under present circumstances. Instead, they snapped at any outstretched Administration hand. By week...
...inner circle of Cabinet ministers has already submitted one set of specific industrial reforms to De Gaulle. He bounced them, instructing his ministers to draw up another set that would go much further. Though he seems fully committed to far-reaching reform, De Gaulle may find that he is pursuing mutually exclusive goals. As he grants more power to workers, for example, he almost certainly will frighten away the investment capital that he needs to revitalize and modernize France's ailing economy. And by polarizing the French, he has tended to build higher and stronger the wall that separates...

...under Smithsonian auspices and currently supported largely from local donations. It has drawn more than 40,000 visitors, with shows of African artifacts and craftwork borrowed from local embassies and even an African food fair. "This place," says Director John Kinard, 30, a native of Washington's inner city, "has brought people who wouldn't otherwise be caught dead in a museum." Shows are often scheduled on the basis of requests found in the suggestion box, giving local residents, as Kinard points out, a real feeling of "this is our thing." Even the reality of violence...
Animated Display. To demonstrate their compound's wide capability, RCA researchers sandwiched a thin film of the liquid crystals between two sheets of glass. The inner surface of each sheet was coated with a transparent electrical conducting material. When a small negative charge was applied to one sheet and a positive charge to the other, so much turbulence was caused inside the liquid crystals' molecular structure that the film turned instantly opaque. Next, in a more complicated display, the conducting surfaces were divided into a mosaic of squares, each separately linked to the external power source; this enabled...
