...skies. Japanese diplomats formally asked the U.S. to prevent "foreign military planes" from crossing Japan's frontiers. In a news release, the Japanese warned "the foreign power concerned" to stay away, left no doubt that they were referring to Soviet Russia, whose planes have been flying over northern Hokkaido for months. To the fighter pilots of Major General Delmar Spivey's Japan Air Defense Force went an order: give one warning burst of fire to intruders, then shoot to kill...
...nearly 30 shipping companies* under five different flags, Onassis already has headquarters in Montevideo, branch offices in Paris, London, New York, Hamburg and Panama. But since much of his tanker business is bringing oil from the Middle East through the Mediterranean to Northern Europe, he thought he should have offices near the Mediterranean ports of Marseille and Genoa, where many of his ships are repaired. To Onassis, some empty buildings he had seen on a visit to Monaco looked ideal. A year ago, he approached Monaco's Societe des Bains de Mer et Cercle des Strangers (Sea Bathing Society...
Kenyatta, handcuffed and shabby after ten weeks in jail, was on trial last week in the remote northern outpost of Kapenguria.

The Marxist group, however, judged him guilty of "maligning the struggle and achievements of the negroes" and went on to find him following "in the footsteps of the traditional approach to the period by asserting in his lectures that...

Lawyer Marshall suggested that, once the principle of non-segregation is established, the Southern school boards might soften the blow by redistricting (as does many a Northern school board) so that most Negroes would attend one school and most whites another. (This proposal Frankfurter contemptuously rated as "gerrymandering.") How thorny the Supreme Court may find the problem was indicated last week as the Justices disappeared behind their red curtain. Word spread that they might not rule on these cases...
