...still remember with admiration and the Algerians with bitterness. As Governor General of Morocco, his remedy for unrest was to propose the exile of Sultan Mohammed V. "Colonies are not made by virgins" was his motto. For years he had been the most stubborn opponent of all concessions, the loudest champion of the colonists' cherished contention that Algeria is a permanent part of France, the most violent critic of any suggestion of a separate status for Algeria...
TACAN will be developed rapidly for military purposes. After it has been well tested by military use, its directional as well as its distance-measuring feature may be made available to civilians.

...imagination and patience to captivate a customer than to clobber him.

Ostensibly written by a U.S. rock 'n' roller named Mig Bike, the song is actually the latest and loudest product of a reedy, bespectacled 24-year-old named Michel Legrand. Although the people who buy his records have only recently become aware that he exists, Composer-Conductor Legrand has in the last three years become one of the most successful popular musicians in France and a top seller on both...
