But there are times when the pilot's choice is not so easy, when a reasonable man might stay or go, and pressures may make the ultimate difference in his decision. Whenever possible, most pilots prefer to make landings according to visual (fair weather) flight rules, instead of instrument approaches that take more time and cost more in fuel. Circling in a fog over Tokyo in March, a Canadian Pacific pilot decided to divert his flight to Taipei; he changed his mind when he heard...

Despite the steady attrition, New Yorkers will probably prefer one improved paper to two mediocre ones. But for all their secretive, slow-maturing plans, the new papers must get some unpleasant unfinished business out of the way before they can begin to publish.

In a number of races, though, civil rights leaders prefer to manipulate the balance of power. One likely white beneficiary is Wilson Baker, Selma's public-safety director, who is challenging Dallas County's bullyboy sheriff, Jim Clark. Baker's restraint during last year's impassioned civil rights demonstrations may have also won him hefty non-Negro support. The reason: many Dallas County whites blame Clark's cattle-prodding tactics for dramatizing...
