...other dockers seemed likely to follow their example. In Northern Ireland, dockers attacked fishermen who had been running supplies of Irish bacon and eggs into Britain, dumping the goods into harbors and scattering them on beaches.

Dutch and Belgian truck farmers and shippers complained of losing millions of dollars. The government could, of course, use troops to move goods, and preliminary legal moves were made in this direction. But such an action...

Golda was also Lady Macbeth, Medusa, a witch and Sophie Portnoy. When Moshe Dayan and Deputy Premier Yigal Allon lost in their bids for the Premiership Sylvie wrote...
They are archrivals in Britain's business of turning stately homes into tourist traps. Yet the Duke of Bedford invited the Marauess of Bath to open his $2,500,000 "Wild Animal Kingdom" at Woburn Abbey. Only the animals refused to cooperate. As Bath drove around the preserve in his Bentley, a lion named Reggie leaped onto the hood. Three baby elephants had charged him as he cut the blue ribbon. When Bath held his ground, 450-lb.
