Balkanized Continent. Tsiranana, of course, was denounced as a neocolonialist stooge. Next on the list of outspoken orators was Ghana's leftist Kwame Nkrumah. In a two-hour meander through his customary wood lot, the Redeemer threw some insights into Africa's darker thickets. As it now stands, he said, Africa consists of "economically unviable states, which bear no possibility of real development." Nkrumah warned against the continent's "Balkanized nationalism."

In this sun-kissed journalistic keep south of San Francisco, the Western way of life is reverenced as a backyard religion because Sunset Magazine is its priest...
...edge. Four piers, each with a cozy pavilion, jut out into the sea. Dotting the beach are cabanas, each outfitted with swimming trunks and soft towels. In one, presumably the Premier's, is a white emergency telephone. Phones in blue boxes are scattered along asphalt walks that meander through the forest...
