...concludes: "It is enough that there is a beyond." It may be enough for Lilith, but it is not for the play. The ascetic longevity of the ancients is, of course, Shaw's metaphor for a nobler human development. But for this metaphor to be effective, the audience must will it into life, like a sort of metaphysical Tinker Bell. Faced with an imagined future where imperfect infants are put to death, where sex is outgrown at the age of four and where life's true realm is pure, icy mind, most playgoers simply will not aspire...
...fallen heirs settle for progressively less. At last, in the 20th century, man realizes that his days have grown far too short. He is only a vessel of the life force that is evolving along "the path to godhead," and if civilization is to advance or even survive, he must learn to live to a riper, wiser age. Over the next 300 centuries, he begins working his way back to Adam's 1,000 years, or at least to Methuselah...
Still, the new schedule offers some hope. No longer must the viewer face a season rolling without highlight or change.

Because of such jams, 18 member firms are operating under exchange-imposed restrictions.

Since last December, the exchange has also required brokers to set aside capital to cover 10% of the market value of stock snagged in failures to deliver that are 40 to 49 days behind schedule and the penalty rises to 30% on "fails" that...
...bank's analysts handle more than 11,000 personal and institutional investment accounts, each of which usually must have a minimum of $200,000. Portfolio managers service the proverbially helpless richman's widow as well as the young business-school graduate who uses his M.B.A. training to turn the modest old family firm into a gold mine. Real estate experts on the bank's 1,200-man staff will advise on matters like buying a villa on the Mediterranean. The bank also lends money for many investments. Altogether, the company charges the usual brokerage commission plus advisory...
