...dollars have been pumped out by the U.S. balance of payments deficit-a term that sounds formidably technical but is quite simple in concept. The balance of payments is the grand total of money that Americans and their Government spend, lend and invest abroad, matched against total receipts from foreign sources. A deficit occurs when more money goes out of the U.S. than comes into it. This has happened in seven of the past ten years, and lately the gap between U.S. international spending and income has reached alarming proportions. Last year the U.S. spent a record $10.7 billion more...
...Greenwich Village Follies. They were found subjects as, in a way, was Yvonne De Carlo, who seemed wrong for the role of Phyllis but fit perfectly the rebuilt part of Carlotta, the mantrap.

It is also why editing TV news requires a special kind of vigilance...

Roughly 7½ minutes of the half hour goes to commercials and station breaks, the rest to items simply read by the anchorman because they are late-breaking or do not lend themselves to illustration. Perhaps seven important film stories are fighting for time each night, and a producer and film editor (in New York or at a network bureau) are assigned to cut them to size...
