ISAAC BABEL: YOU MUST KNOW EVERYTHING, edited by Nathalie Babel. Newly translated short stories, abrupt prose exercises and journalistic sketches show the individuality that was both Babel's genius and his death warrant...
...court could find that an inquest is not designed to deal with the extraordinarily publicized Kennedy case and that any action must be left to a grand jury-an inquiry held in secret. District Attorney Dinis, however, would prefer to avoid a grand jury investigation, since he himself would be in charge and the press would be excluded...
...outcome is that the inquest will be canceled-leaving Dinis the option of calling a grand jury-or that it will be held in secret to protect the rights of Kennedy and the other witnesses.

Even more difficult is the task of determining the chemical identity of the isolated substance. Once that is done, it must be tested in animals to find out whether its germ-killing powers outweigh whatever undesirable side effects it may have. If the compound proves both safe and effective enough to be tested in man, the laboratory chemists will face the task of either synthesizing it or using the natural product as the base for a semisynthetic drug...
