...also shaping up as an eminently depressing place to live. Co-Op City is dense (200 people per acre). It is relentlessly ugly: its buildings are overbearing bullies of concrete and brick. Its layout is dreary and unimaginative. Right now, residents have to bus their kids to nearby schools and shop in a make-do supermarket on the bottom floor of a garage. Not a spadeful of dirt has yet been turned on a new subway line that will connect the project directly with New York City, of which it is supposed to be a vital part. Even worse, except...
Ready To Do Business.

Such radical conditions prevail at Le Figaro, France's leading conservative newspaper. Its 250 reporters, columnists and sub-editors have long enjoyed these prerogatives under a special agreement with the paper's owners. But now, management wants to reassert its right to manage. To show just how they felt about that idea, Figaro's staff last week staged a one-day strike...
