...Frank's affair, when he returned to his district it was a largely working-class crowd that cheered him at a parade through Fall River soon after the story broke. Perhaps even in quiet, conservative Fall River, the world isn't as neat as it used to be.

The Communist youth daily Junge Welt asked last week what must be done to keep its citizens from being "lured away by shop windows filled with bananas." But it is not simply economic hardship in the East that motivates those who flee to the West. The refugees who arrived in West Germany stressed that it was the all-intrusive influence...
