...said he would go back to Samneua and Phongsaly to see if he could get another. The rest of Laos' ministers, all now technically royal and loyal, went nightclubbing. Communist broadcasters in Hanoi, Peking and Moscow were jubilant. "The agreement," said Radio Hanoi, "would serve as a model for the reunification of North and South Viet...
Those who fear Leopold's release for the sake of society's safety have little reason to worry. Leopold has conducted himself as a model prisoner during his years of imprisonment; no evidence of disciplinary or sexual deviancy has ever been reported of Leopold. The frustrations inherent in prison life make this achievement quite rare. Meyer Levin, who intelligently examined the Loeb-Leopold case in his recent book Compulsion, believes that the murder served as a catharsis for Leopold's psychic problems, releasing him into a normal mental life...
These are more positive arguments for Leopold's release. Besides being a model prisoner, Leopold has redesigned the prison library, learned to be a medical technician, taught classes in prison, served in cancer experiments, and participated on the board for parole prediction on which he has written two published articles. Leopold, who speaks thirty-six languages, is obviously intelligent and could be a potentially very valuable member of society. Indeed, he has often reiterated that, if released, he will go to Puerto Rico and serve as a medical technician for the natives in the manner of Albert Schweitzer...
...another notch in October to 142 on the Federal Reserve's index, two points below September and four points below October 1956. While nondurable goods held steady, steel, producers' equipment, construction materials and autos all were down, although much of the auto drop was due to the model changeover, and the Fed itself noted that November production schedules indicate a "marked recovery." Bank loans to business were also down in October to a total $31.3 billion, a decrease of $796 million since midyear v. an increase of $1.2 billion in 1956 during the same period. The climb...
Though actually a model T compared to future reactors, its pressurized (2,000 Ibs. per sq. in.) water reactor is similar to the safe, older model that drives the atomic submarine U.S.S. Nautilus. To make absolutely sure that no radioactive water ever escapes, its 100,000 ft. of pipes are linked by 20,000 welds, each checked by X ray and coded to tell which worker made it on what date. The ordinary safeguards against the escape of radioactive rays are backstopped by the 5-ft.-thick walls of the plant...
