...week swing through five Western European countries. As the World editor does periodically, he visited TIME correspondents and met with leaders of European politics, business, the church and the press. He talked with, among many others, Italy's Prince Nicolo Pignatelli, the oilman who is president of Gulf Italiana; Spain's Vincente Cardinal Enrique y Tarancón; France's Jean-François Revel, author and columnist for the weekly L'Express; and Britain's Roy Hattersley, Minister for European Affairs. "The changes in leadership all over the Continent have implications that go beyond...
...major source of political parties' funds-but rather the favors the oilmen allegedly got for them. Whether the companies can clear themselves depends largely on the eventual testimony of Industrialist Vincenzo Cazzaniga, who until two years ago headed both Unione Petrolifera and Exxon's local subsidiary Esso Italiana. A warrant for his arrest has been issued, but he is now on a business trip abroad. Cazzaniga is specifically charged with having distributed about $2 million to politicians in 1972 to make sure that the state electric company would keep using oil-fired generating plants rather than nuclear facilities...
...billion to Britain's trade deficit next year. Supply shortages will take longer to show up-about a month's supply of Arab oil is headed for European ports in tankers already at sea-but eventually shortages are a real threat. Giovanni Theodoli, president of Chevron Oil Italiana, fears a 20% drop in Italian crude-oil imports over the next six months, and worries that "we are not going to have enough energy to support our industry."

Wagner, Der Ring des Nibelungen (assorted soloists, Chorus and Orchestra of the RAI-Radiotelevisione Italiana, Wilhelm Furtwängler conducting; Seraphim, 19 LPs, $53.98). With Beethoven and Brahms, Furtwängler could be infuriatingly eccentric. When he was conducting Wagner, though, his stately, expansive, analytic style produced performances that were ingeniously congruent with the composer's convoluted purpose. Drawn from a 1953 series of radio broadcasts from Rome in mono sound that ranges from only dim to adequate, this is a Ring that every Wagnerian will at least want to hear, and probably own as a low-priced...
