Three Strikes. In the '50s, Harlem's population actually declined by 27,000 because of the construction of vast housing projects. The outflow relieved the ghetto's congestion somewhat, but it also damaged Harlem's future almost beyond repair, for 41,000 middle class Negroes in their 20s and 30s got out, making Harlem more of a slum than ever and leaving it with no core to build...
Imbalance & Interest. The alliance faces two basic economic problems: Europe is wrestling with persistent inflation, and the U.S. is fighting a pernicious international payments imbalance and gold outflow. These two problems captured the attention of the meeting, which included almost everybody who is anybody among the world's money managers-from IMF Managing Director Pierre-Paul Schweitzer and Deutsche Bank Chief Hermann Abs to Morgan Guaranty Chairman Henry C.

...have to come back despite the higher rates simply because there is not enough ready capital in Europe to satisfy world demand. Probably no U.S. action-other than the unthinkable step of ending the nation's free capital market tradition by closing out foreigners altogether-can stem the outflow of investment capital from the U.S. The solution lies in Europe's meeting the new financial responsibilities its prosperity has forced upon...
