...game, and there are other ways of scoring it than at the end of each inning. It took 400 seemingly fruitless meetings to end Rus sia's obduracy and achieve an independent Austria; a similar process of exploration, cross-questioning and testing of intentions would be needed if mutual agreement, in stead of the caprice of history, is to settle the future of Germany and of European security. Anyone who took the trouble to study the Western position at Geneva would find it an honest attempt to reach agreement. That mysterious, ephemeral and debatable quality, the diplomatic initiative...
...second phase, if it got that far, would presumably consist of a Russian attempt to "unpack the package" by throwing out a series of isolated counterproposals, each designed to catch the fancy of one of the Western powers and to horrify the others. (Example: an appeal for a mutual reduction of armed forces in central Europe, which would hold out to Britain the prospect of dismantling her costly Army of the Rhine, but would strike France and West Germany as the forerunner to U.S. military withdrawal from Western Europe.)

Such a pact would be similar to the profit-sharing pact signed by struck airlines last fall (TIME, Nov. 10), except that the airlines later got tentative approval from the Civil Aeronautics Board, which can exempt airlines from antitrust procedures...
More extreme advocates of splitting say that all U.S. corporations should split their stock so that it sells at $10 to $15, where it can compete with mutual funds. Many funds price their shares in this range (e.g., Lazard Fund, One William Street), keep splitting so that prices remain low. Says Harold Clayton of Hemphill, Noyes & Co.: "A. T. & T., at 20 or 10 or 5, is a blue chip regardless of its selling price...
