...located near enough to a water supply for feeding a steam turbine to turn a generator, and many are the low-grade deposits that have remained untapped because it has become too expensive to mine the coal and ship it to distant markets. Now the U.S. Department of the Interior has made a modest $680,500 bet that Physicist Meredith Gourdine, 36, has found a promising answer to the dilemma...
...joined in Bangkok by Senior Editor Edward Hughes, who was then on his second swing in three years through Southeast Asia. For ten days Hughes and Kraar talked with Thai officials, business leaders, editors, bankers and diplomats in the capital. They also made two long trips into the interior, one to Chiang Mai, where Thailand borders on Burma, a second to Udorn near the Laos frontier, where one of the U.S. airbases is located. In both areas the government, with U.S. cooperation, is carrying out extensive rural rehabilitation and development programs...
...Praphas Charusathien, 54, the jowly and jolly commander in chief of the army, Deputy Premier, Interior Minister and most visibly active and outspoken man in government.

Sattahip's fuel pipeline system will eventually extend to Korat, where the U.S. Army's 9th Logistical Command has already stockpiled enough guns, tanks, trucks and ammunition for a full division. U.S. and Thai engineers are constructing the Bangkok Bypass, a strategic highway...
...Cleveland interior designer, Rorimer combined a taste for architecture and a liking for the decorative arts. As a boy, he made a candlestick on his own lathe; as a freshman at Harvard ('27), he had already begun collecting rare Rhodian pottery. At the Met, he became a medieval specialist, presided over the Cloisters, a priceless museum, literally from the ground up: Rorimer preceded the masons by building gunnysack forms to guide them. At the time of his death he was planning the new $5,000,000 American wing...
