...groups and members of assorted agencies of the James Bond category, who informally share with us their information and their conclusions. Our German bureau touched base with 15 assorted Kremlinologists (as they all hate to be called) in Bonn, Berlin and Munich. Most, if not all, of these sources insist on anonymity; they talk to us out of a fascination with the subject, a trust in our discretion, and an eagerness to share their knowledge in an area vital to us all. They tend to caution: few of them play the headline game of trying to choose up sides...
...drive them from Ladakh. This view is supported by Chinese statements, made last April, in response to Indian demands that the Chinese leave Ladakh. The statements claimed both Ladakh and the NEFA as Chinese territory. It is an unreasonable prelude to negotiations, the statement claimed, for India to insist on occupying all the disputed territory.

Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite-We Insist includes tunes like Tears for Johannesburg, a lament for the Africans shot down in the Sharpeville massacre. To younger jazzmen, a great musician like Louis Armstrong is suspect-instead of hopping on the freedom bus he has been content to remain an "Uncle...
...without offsetting increases in tourism and military spending, would be a serious blow and critics of the Big Five argue that by taking their know-how abroad, the companies may actually help foreign producers to cut into Hawaiian pineapple and sugar sales. In rebuttal, defenders of the Big Five insist that Hawaii's pineapple and sugar industries have been developed about as far as is possible under the prevailing high wage levels. Says Dole Corp.'s President Herbert C. Cornuelle: "It's better for Castle & Cooke to go abroad than to die. This way, at least, money...
