...SHOP ON MAIN STREET. Well deserving of its Oscar, the of best its foreign to film of the year owes much of its Josef Krōner and Ida Kaminska as a couple of harmless villagers who have to work out their own answers to the Jewish question in Nazi-dominated Czechoslovakia...
...unpopularity of the President's position, and dissatisfaction with the war in general, will appear in two forms in this year's elections: as a general reduction in the Democratic Party's share of the vote, and in individual contests where the war is the main issue. Even without the war, Democrats would have been hard pressed to maintain their 1964 level of popularity. Numerous Congressmen, and state and local officials were swept into office on the LBJ landslide. Without Barry Goldwater, many of these Democrats would automatically have been in trouble. Now they must face the fact that...
From Novosibirsk, De Gaulle flew south to Baikonur, the Soviet Union's main space center. No other Westerner had ever seen the Baikonur "cosmodrome," and the Russians topped that distinction by launching a satellite in De Gaulle's honor-probably, said wags, a polar-orbiting satellite aimed at spying on the U.S. From there, at week's end, De Gaulle flew on to Leningrad for tours of the Hermitage and the Petrodvorets palace-and more talks with Podgorny and Kosygin about the ultimate disposition of Europe...

The $34 million reconstruction will move parts of the main facade as much as 88 ft. westward, adding 41 acres of badly needed floor space distributed over seven levels from sub-subbasement to attic. Into the new area will fit conference and committee rooms, 109 offices for Congressmen, a pair of auditoriums seating 400 each, cafeterias and dining rooms seating 1,600 people. Many of the new facilities, including those for eating, are designed to handle tourists who now visit the Capitol...
