...fundamental aspect of American life-work." Most of the U.S. artists are drawn to Rome because it is cheaper to live there. Their down-to-earth approach is reflected in their art: painting includes recognizable images, sculpture often mirrors the human form, prose and poetry tend to be lucid, coherent and direct. Few have qualms about accepting commercial commissions. Cracked one sculptor: "For a thousand dollars I'll do a head of grandma -guaranteed to look just like grandma!" Wives for Models. Typical of Rome's new expatriates is Detroit-born Zubel Kachadoorian, 35, who formerly worked part...

...Business. If the Russians were eager to harp on the issue of inviting other nations, they were not willing to wreck the conference over it, and the U.S.'s Christian Herte>r, taking the chair next day, plunged straight ahead to the conference's real business. His lucid opening speech made clear that there would be a summit conference afterward if "constructive proposals" were made. He affirmed that "the U.S. is in deadly earnest about wanting to reach agreements." After the three other ministers and representatives of the two Germanys made speeches, Christian Herter proceeded to put forward...

Time, a glossy weekly newsmagazine noted more for its Lucid views and artless covers than for its accuracy, loves Rupublicans and America, dislikes Democrats and Nasser, eschews conjunctions. Despite these shortcomings it is a rollicking, frolicking smashit in the rough, tough dog-eat-dog newsmagazine game, has huge advertising revenues, publishes several international editions. Publisher Henry Luce, a semi-literate Yaleman (his wife is femalegate to Brazil Clare Booth Luce), was "unavailable for comment" today as irate mobs hurled Bolivitriol at the U.S. embassy and Information Office in reaction to the latest piece of Timeddling...

...then, hair pulled back in an untidy bun, skirt and blouse refusing to meet. Fernando Olivier, who lived with Picasso, described her thus: "Fat short, massive, beautiful head, strong with noble features, accentuated, regular, intelligent eyes seeing clearly, spiritually. Her mind clear and lucid. Masculine in her voice, in all her walk..." Her hands were all of one piece, rather than having articulate fingers. Though these extraordinarily made Gertrude Stein the rage of Paris later, little wonder that she did not delight the Harvard undergraduates...
