Since his first meeting with Adenauer 15 months ago, De Gaulle has treated West Germany as a junior partner, has shown a lofty lack of concern for German sensibilities. So far, his government has made no public apology for the French navy's high-seas seizure six weeks ago of the West German freighter Bilbao, suspected of carrying arms to the Algerian rebels. De Gaulle has put it more bluntly than anyone else: he regards the present frontiers between Poland and Germany as permanent and dismisses the German dream of recovering the "lost provinces." De Gaulle is obviously...
Neutralist Nkrumah, with Partner Sékou Touré in neighboring Guinea, would like to build an "independent" union movement in Africa and cut labor ties with the free world's International Confederation of Free Trade Unions, but many suspect this merely conceals an inclination to affiliate with a Communist-backed rival, the World Federation of Trade Unions.

They worked together on the 1956 slum-clearance expose, collaborated again this year on an extracurricular writing assignment for the Nation. Titled "The Shame of New York...
...about the genteel shabbiness of lower-middle-class Negro life. A set piece on the well-calculated emotionalism of a Bible-banging preacher could hardly be done better. And the reader feels sharply Katherine's humiliation and despair when her neurotically protective father insists on being her dancing partner at parties. For violence and despair, the Dunham family wars approach Eugene O'Neill's. When the last blow has been struck-backhanded, across the mouth-and Katherine has at last left home, it seems astonishing that she has somehow survived her long night's journey into...
