...might not get the other six Federal Reserve governors to agree-and even if he did, he would practically be inviting an outraged Congress to take away the Federal Reserve's cherished independence. One newspaper cartoon pictures Burns and Carter as a Washington version of Price and Pride, A. &P.'s smoothly complementary TV pitchmen: Burns presumably cautioning the proud Carter not to jazz up the economy so much as to make the inflationary price unacceptable. That may be overstating the prospects for harmony, but the two men at least realize that for the next year they will...

But 400 years on the alimentary canal is not a long stretch for the development of a national cuisine. Europeans had more than twice that long. The Chinese have had millenniums.

I can go through anything, but those children have...
Until now, that is. Attacking this problem of economics and national pride with chemistry, researchers at the Soviet Academy of Sciences have found a way to make a caviar substitute out of milk, and the Ministry of Fisheries has opened a pilot production line in Moscow to try it out. Located in a corner of a large fish processing plant on the banks of the Moscow Canal, the line is a 60-ft. stretch of stainless-steel tanks, plunging pistons and gurgling agitators, ending in a conveyor belt that delivers small jars labeled CAVIAR-PROTEIN-FRESH. Although the facility turns...
