...preceded into East Germany by Marshall Loeb, who edits TIME color projects, and Photographer Jerry Cooke. Their entries also took much wangling, but once inside the country they encountered only minor harassment. Once, while Cooke was photographing the Wall from the western side, a soldier from the other side kept blinking a mirror into his lens. One frustration for the visiting journalist in East Germany is the obligatory, ever-present "guide," for whose services the government charges $40 a day. Nickel's escort was a friendly but ideologically correct type who called the Western correspondent "beloved enemy." But, said...
Western Europe's Common Market is celebrating its tenth anniversary in a justifiably euphoric state of self-congratulation. Trade among the Six has increased 238% in those years, and the last internal tariffs will disappear by mid-1968.

Harvard should follow suit...
Source of Embarrassment. After gathering the vote he wanted last week, De Gaulle hailed "this renewed contract" and vowed to carry out France's "mission of liberty and progress." Somaliland can stand some progress. Practically without an economy and with no natural resources, it is kept going only by French aid ($26 million last year). The French have thus won the right to continue pouring money into Somaliland, but they have also won more trouble than they bargained for. Before the week was out, legionnaires rooted thousands of dissident Somali tribesmen out of their tumble-down shanties in Djibouti...
