...Finland, Aalto passed on everything, down to the individual blue ceramic tiles that line the lobby, specially designed the laminated Finnish birch furniture and the reedlike gold-dipped light fixtures and lamps. Following his principle that a straight line is the shortest distance to boredom, Aalto made walls undulate outward to make the whole room a stage for the view, and paneled them like a painter with pale American ash. "Wood," says he, "is close to human experience." Showing off Aalto's virtuosity with wood, these slender columns are made of tiny wooden dowels glued together like bundles...

At week's end, when Johnson announced a lower 1964 deficit and a greater budget cut than earlier estimates, there was, typically, no sign...
...Looking Outward. Something of a demagogue, natty little Kamuzu Banda, nevertheless, is wise enough to know where his country's wherewithal must come from. He has asked for and received a large and immensely popular contingent from the U.S. Peace Corps. He has persuaded the British to make up budget deficits of Malawi for its first five years of nationhood. He has established friendly relations with the Portuguese, who control his only outlet to the sea. He has persuaded London's Colonial Development Corporation to advance the bulk of the cash needed for a Shire River power project...
