Michele Ray, 28, boasts an odd assortment of journalistic qualifications. A former fashion model and Elle magazine cover girl, the slim 5-ft. 10-in. Frenchwoman is a professional race-car driver and is making her own 16-mm. movie in Viet Nam. She is single-mindedly persistent in search of what she wants. "I first go to the Americans," she purrs, "and if they don't tell me, then I go to the Vietnamese-they always tell me everything." As a freelancer, she recently spent eight days with the Green Berets. Grateful for her presence, they named...

The total economy, which cooled its feverish expansion during the second quarter, heated up again in the third quarter; gross national product rose by $13.6 billion, and corporate profits reached new highs (see box, following page). The Labor Department reported that consumer prices jumped by a substantial...
...European Coal and Steel Community, the first of the grand international enterprises undertaken by Western Europe after World War II, formed the nucleus of the Common Market, and ever since has been considered a model for economic development. The Community promoted steel and coal production, cut tariffs, achieved fair pricing, and took much of the malice out of Franco-German industrial rivalry.
