...never been anything more than a docile advisory body. Then, in February, the councilors unanimously passed a motion of censure against Rainier's French Minister of State, the luxury-loving Henry Soum. Just why they objected to the minister so, they never made quite clear, but they nevertheless demanded that he be fired. The Prince refused. He also rejected a resolution which, though couched in almost obsequious language, was actually a rude reminder that the time had come to get on with a little democracy.

Nevertheless, for most Westerners, recordings will probably remain the only clue to Richter's art. Although Conductor Ormandy would like to bring him to the U.S., there is no sign yet that Russia is ready to send its finest pianist into the world...

A special committee (six clergymen, two theologians and five medical men) noted in a preliminary report that "there is the danger in the tense emotional atmosphere of large healing missions of a concentration on the individual healer rather than on God as the source of wholeness . . . Nevertheless, we believe that however many or grave the dangers in the practice of a ministry of healing, there is the greater danger of our limiting the power of God by our fear and timidity, and of our failing to fulfill our Lord's own concern for the well-being...
