...school board. There fire trucks backed up another police line, finally scattered them with billowing streams of water. All afternoon and evening, gangs of whites and Negroes prowled the narrow, ill-lit streets of the French Quarter, stoning cars, attacking luckless individuals who came their way, tossing homemade Molotov cocktails through darkened windows. Before the rioting ended, New Orleans' tough, alert police, working on extralong, twelve-hour shifts, had arrested 240 persons (215 of them Negro) on charges ranging from loitering to assault...
...years, one of Africa's busiest agitators was a dapper French Camerounese medical doctor named Felix-Roland Mou-mié. In 1955, at the age of 29, he privately wrote Vyacheslav Molotov: "If ever I succeed in taking power in my country, I assure you I will build a socialist republic." But he indignantly denied that he was a Communist, described himself as no more than a pious Presbyterian.

After three years as ambassador to Outer Mongolia, Old Bolshevik Vyacheslav M. Molotov, 70, arrived in Vienna last week to represent Russia on the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Three years after his exile to the Soviet embassy in Outer Mongolia, the Kremlin last week announced that former Soviet Foreign Minister Vyacheslav M. ("The Hammer") Molotov was being brought back to represent Russia on the International Atomic Energy Agency in gay Vienna. With characteristic tact, the Russians chose to break the news on the 21st anniversary of the day Molotov signed the 1939 non-aggression treaty between Russia and Nazi Germany...
Greece and The Netherlands to accept Molotov as Soviet ambassador, some Soviet experts said that Khrushchev was treating his old foe gently just to point up the contrast between Khrushchevian "humanitarianism" and the bad old Stalin days, when politicians usually lost their lives along with their jobs. Others speculated that it made Nikita nervous to have Molotov in a post so near Red China; in the ideological dispute now raging between Russia and China, long-time "hardliner" Molotov would presumably share Peking's view that Khrushchev is dangerously soft on capitalism...
