Having staked out France's positions for the world in like-it-or-lump-it fashion, De Gaulle indulged in a rare personal comment on his own unique role. Sardonically he declared: "Occasionally people tell me or ask others to tell me-and this is very kind-'Oh yes, you are there and so everything is fine. But after you, it will be chaos.' Then some suggest that we institute this chaos right now so as to ensure my succession. Well. I should like to think that over a bit." Then, while the assembled newsmen chuckled...
...begin rehearsals for her first Broadway appearance since 1957, the title role in Midgie Purvis, a new farce by Mary Chase. Said Tallulah in her Far East town house: "I never leave the East Side.

During the last month I had to undergo a series of operations. I was hospitalized when your [March 9] article on "Journalism and Joachim's Children" appeared . . . [It] was a surprise to me-and a very pleasant one. I would not have thought that my New Science of Politics would attract your attention. It is a severely theoretical work, and it makes no concessions to popularity.
