...CHOICE OF AMERICANS-Lewison, 50 East 76th. Just the thing for a hot day: Bierstadt's small Washington, D.C. in 1863 showing Conestoga wagons winding along the Potomac, Cole's English Landscape in which couples as well as cows find coolness by a stream, Moro's Beach at Cape Cod, Lawson's impressionistic Landscape in pinks and greens, Ochtman's Mill Pond, Casilear's New Hampshire ravine, an unusual treatment of texture in rocks, moss and wood. Through June...
...goods faster than farms or factories can produce them, prices have been soaring in almost every country. Last year they rose 4% in the Benelux nations, 6% in France, 7% in Italy. They are still climbing. Such worried leaders as German Chancellor Ludwig Erhard and Italian Prime Minister Aldo Moro warn that continued inflation may ruin Europe's economy by weakening its currencies and shutting off its world markets. Even Pope Paul, in an unusual message last month, took note of Italy's inflationary spiral by recommending austerity both because of "the Lenten season and the state...

No less vigorous than Fanfani in his advocacy of the center-left...
Prophetically, Moro had once tried to join the Socialist Party but was turned down as being "too Catholic." A devout churchgoer who attends Mass daily, he was born in Lecce in the heel of Italy's boot, studied law at the University of Bari, at 24 began teaching. Entering Parliament in 1946, the newcomer was nicknamed by his colleagues "The Quaker" because of his dour outlook and austere habits. Through sheer diligence, Moro became Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs in 1948, received his own ministry (Justice) in 1955. However, his speeches as a politician sounded as if he were...
