...Footsie." The G.O.P.'s fresh face belongs to Dempsey's good friend and neighbor E. (for Edmund) Clayton Gengras, 57, chairman of the Security-Connecticut Group and of the Connecticut Co., which runs urban bus lines. A high school dropout, Gengras is a self-made millionaire and self-starting candidate whose first bid for public office took both rank-and-file Republicans and Democrats by surprise. Also surprising was the unanimity mustered at the party convention, which nominated him by acclamation. Though Nutmeg State Republicans have been notorious for factional feuding in recent years, State Republican Chairman...
Antwerp has been blessed by history, geography and its neighbor's good roads. The single superhighway leading from the city fortunately connects with the German autobahn, and excellent canal and rail links tie Antwerp to the rest of Europe. Compared with its bigger competitors for investment, Belgium is more centrally located than Italy or Britain, more politically friendly than France, and farther from the Iron Curtain than West Germany. In the hunt for new business, Antwerp since 1956 has spent $100 million to clear industrial sites and double its harbor capacity, plans to have the port ready...
...must have been a Republican who complained." Still, it was awfully apt, as two blue-uniformed New York policemen piled out of a prowl car in front of Philanthropist Mary Lasker's Beekman Place town house at 1:05 in the morning.

"Would you close a couple of those second-floor windows to keep...
...ungainly gadget carried no human passengers. But as it eased its complex cargo to a soft landing on the moon's Ocean of Storms last week, the U.S. spacecraft, Surveyor I, moved man himself closer than ever to a landing on his nearest planetary neighbor. In an exercise of textbook perfection, Surveyor settled down only a few miles from its planned target; its TV camera panned across the lunar landscape and high-quality pictures streamed back to earth. For a program that had languished for years in exasperating delay, expanding expenses and mounting criticism, the very first payoff...
Thus last week Indonesia's military seized the initiative in ending the costly demiwar with its neighbor. The mission to Malaysia, which had been kept secret in Djakarta, further undercut President Sukarno's already weakened position. Sukarno had apparently hoped to persuade the military to reverse the policy of Foreign Minister Adam Malik, who has been openly demanding an end to konfrontasi. But the fact that the "Crush Malaysia" commanders themselves undertook an independent peace mission seemed to demolish that hope. The military's action, in fact, buttresses Malik's position as he leaves this week...
