...York's Governor Nelson Rockefeller, intent on establishing an independent Republican identity in his try for the presidency, seems to assume as much. Said he in a recent speech: "Our people are looking for a sense of direction and purpose." In agreement is Chicago Industrialist Charles Percy (Bell & Howell cameras), who last month led a committee that set G.O.P. goals.

...house in Beverly Hills, Calif., is gabled brick, inset with casement windows. To its door last week paraded a steady file of visitors, intent on paying their respects to the erect, shock-haired old man who lives there in semiseclusion.

But on a tour through northern France last week, it was evident that Charles de Gaulle had France's masses behind him. In town after town, workers and farmers cheered as the general ringingly declared: "I am sure the French people have approved the determination to solve the Algerian problem by the heart, the soul and free vote of the inhabitants...
...Viet Nam's Ho Chi Minh upgraded his years-long guerrilla bites at Laos (pop. 2,000,000) into an artillerysupported invasion (see FOREIGN NEWS) so threatening that Laos appealed to the United Nations for help. The U.S., in a stern statement, flatly charged "the Communist bloc" with intent to "foment and direct a rebellion within Laos," noted that the outbreak in Laos had followed conferences in Moscow and Peking, promised to support any "necessary" free world action...
