With the same enthusiasm that they had once devoted to demonstrating against the British, Burma's new bosses set about achieving U Nu's dream. They adopted a $1.6 billion economic development scheme, drew up ambitious plans for a steel mill, textile industry, housing developments and hundreds of other state-operated projects. But somehow, through inexperience and the complicated task of coping simultaneously with half a dozen rebellions, they failed to achieve most of their targets. Early this year, after almost a decade of independence, Burma's gross national product was still less than 90% of what...
Sultry Cinemactress Ava Gardner, whose estrangement from hubby Frank Sinatra is now in its fourth fun-packed year, was all set to make it illegal. In Mexico, apparently serious this time about shedding Frankie-she started through the Reno mill three years ago, then lost interest-Ava filed again for divorce.

Chicago's Encyclopaedia Britannica reported that the output...
...beautiful wife (Sophia Loren). The miller's problem is that the governor of the province (Vittorio De Sica) is less than scrupulous about how he uses his authority. And so one night the miller (Marcello Mastroianni) finds himself sitting helplessly on a prison cot while, back at the mill, the governor is occupying the miller's bed. But back at the gubernatorial palace, the governor's wife (Yvonne Sanson) is all alone in the gubernatorial bed. The situation clearly demands robustious action. As always, there is room at the top for an enterprising young...
