...liberal Republican Senator argues that there are no longer any really dominant personalities on the world scene. This, he says, might increase international good will. "Nixon has a real chance, a great chance," he argues. "There is a balance of mediocrity in the world now. The world could move forward because that is so." One area in which Nixon has moved is in U.S. relations with the Soviet Union.

Last week Georges Pompidou made his most decisive break so far with the traditions of De Gaulle. In a surprise move, his government cut the value of the French franc by 12½%, from 20.255? to 18.004?. For years, De Gaulle had equated the stability of the franc with French honor and his own infallibility; a stable franc had given him the power to play the role of a loner in international politics. Last November, against the weight of global financial opinion and the advice of most of his own ministers, he stunned the world by refusing to devalue...
