...will be hurt by the wind, in the topsyturvy economic world of production gluts nature has done what man has trouble doing. In the past few years, 200 million trees have been deliberately rooted up in Brazil and their beans burned, but 50 million surplus sacks of coffee still overflow the country's bulging warehouses.

So, at nearby Otis Air Force Base, six latrines have special urinals, which yield from 60 to 100 liters a day for Dr. Szent-Gyorgyi's research...

...Santo Domingo, Cellist Pablo Casals, 86-whose Ministry of State is music-resumed diplomatic relations with the Dominican Republic, conducting Beethoven's Ninth Symphony at a festival concert before an overflow crowd in the Palacio de Bellas Artes. Under the Trujillo dictatorship, said Casals, such a visit would have been impossible, but "I am proud to come to this country that has obtained its liberty."
