Informed by the airport tower, the pilot of the Dulles plane circled for seven minutes until the Prime Minister thundered onto the field. Bangkok was a courtesy call for Dulles: there were no critical problems to be ironed out.

Born in Cambridge, Mass., Allen lurched onto the vaudeville boards at 17 as one of the most inept jugglers in history, became a comic after serving in World War I, starred in Broadway musicals through the '203. His radio career was highlighted by a longtime "feud" with Jack Benny and his life illumined with mordant comment...
