...favor of collegiality. They turned down a Curia-sponsored move to make the Virgin Mary a major subject of debate, and passed a Curia-opposed proposal to revive the order of deacons in the church. With Munich's Julius Cardinal Dopfner, one of the four moderators, gaveling them onward, the bishops quickly approved a chapter in the liturgical schema on sacred art that approved "modern" art but condemned extreme abstractionism. This week they moved on to debate a second key schema that pinpoints the division of rights and duties of the bishops and the Roman Curia...

When the Russians hastily assembled a replacement train for the onward journey to Moscow, the Peking crew locked the emergency brakes on their own equipment, raised red signals, and moved cranes to blockade the rails.

The extent of a man's fences is the extent...
Naked Europeans. Despite France's aversion to tariff-cutting, U.S. negotiators at Geneva hoped to achieve far-reaching liberalization of world trade through President Kennedy's Trade Expansion Act. Special Envoy Christian Herter and his 20-man delegation - who were dubbed "Onward Christian's Soldiers" by the press corps-aimed for an agreement whereby Europe and the U.S. would make big, equal, across-the-board percentage cuts on huge categories of goods. Nothing doing, retorted the Europeans, who pointed out that U.S. tariffs are generally higher than Europe's, while the highest U.S. tariffs cover...
