Duarte responded by vetoing what he considered to be objectionable parts of the bill. However, El Salvador's 13-month-old constitution does not make an allowance for such line-item vetoes by the chief executive. Thus the assembly ignored Duarte's action and went ahead and published the original version of the bill. As the country waited for the court's ruling, which could come within days, on Duarte's claim that he has the right of selective veto, the elections were postponed until March...

...spangly, fairy-tale part of the First Lady's role may reach its apotheosis in the State Dining Room. Yet even state dinners are, to Nancy Reagan, an agglomeration of hundreds of prosaic checklist items. She approves and tastes beforehand virtually every item on every menu. During the first term, she spent roughly 450 hours planning 30-odd state dinners.

Such occasions require a deep well of small talk...
