...mainstream of news consists not only of the efforts and activities of statesmen. Indeed, such efforts and activities can be supported only by the currents of thought and culture springing from man's mind. This week TIME'S cover subject, British Sculptor Henry Moore, provides a significant case in point...
...country; and welcome to 20th Century-Fox, and I hope you enjoy seeing how Hollywood makes a musical. We're going to shoot the can-can number without pants."

Roughly the size of Oregon, Laos is shaped like a pistol with the butt pressing against Red China and the barrel aimed at Cambodia. Statistics are foreign to the Laotian mind, and the population can only be guessed at; estimates range from 1,000,-ooo to 4,000,000.
