...James) Graham Parsons, 53, to Sweden. One of the State Department's most knowledgeable Far Eastern experts, Yaleman "Jeff" Parsons has been Assistant Secretary for Far Eastern Affairs since 1959, was architect of the Eisenhower Administration Laos policy, which is now being abandoned in favor of accepting a neutralist regime in Laos. Parsons hoped for Tokyo but got faraway Stockholm instead...
Last week the Communists talked Laos' neutralist Prince Souvanna Phouma (whom they still recognize as the "legitimate" Premier of Laos, though he was deposed three months ago by the National Assembly) into flying into a small airstrip on the rebel-held Plaine des Jarres in north-central Laos.

But the author's principal concern is examined exhaustively and well: If the eye of science offends, should it be plucked out? The heroic Prince de Bary refuses to build war brains for the OSI, and retires to a life of contemplation. Subtly enough that the truth does not cloy, Schirmbeck answers his own question...
