...conversation and there is some laughter. It is an atmosphere of relaxed tension. The danger of war has been averted. But Hitler sits moodily apart. He wriggles on the sofa, he crosses and uncrosses his legs, he folds his arms and glares around the room. At intervals,' with obvious effort, he joins in a conversation, only to relapse into silence. At last the agreement is ready, for signature. The four statesmen sign. Three look satisfied that they have done the right thing. But Hitler scratches his signature as if he were being asked to sign away his birthright...
...Mexico's Democratic Senator Clinton Anderson, senior Senate member of the Joint Congressional Committee on Atomic Energy and a longtime Strauss foe, who filled page after page of the hearing record with charges of extraordinary bitterness. But Lewis Strauss contributed to his own problems: despite his obvious abilities as a public servant, he made a poor witness, angered Democrats with his argumentativeness. embarrassed Republicans with his evasiveness...
...tentative answer and a disturbing charge. Toronto's Dr. Brian P.L. Moore sifted a mass of data, found that incompatibility reactions occurred at a rate ranging from i per 2,000 bottles to 1 per 10,000, with an average of 1 per 4,200.

So the overall risk is closer to 1 in 600, Dr. Moore concludes. And of patients who have such reactions, 15% to 50% will...

Though not the greatest virtues possible to art, these qualities are currently rare-and as delightful as cold water after a binge...
Lautrec's decorative patterns have almost unlimited visual interest because he carefully avoids any sort of systematic stylization, a method all too frequently employed by the Art Nouveau. The lack of any one obvious decorative pattern and the subtle coloring of his poster for Le Divon Japonais produces a composition whose complexity would not have pleased the Art Nouveau. Moreover, as if to prevent decorativism, curved lines that might become stylish are suddenly straightened if the picture requires. The faces in the Divon poster, if anything, are distorted with a vengeance--no pretty picture this. These harsh qualities are precisely...
