Changing into a dark blue suit, Ben Bella that night delivered a "victory" speech from a balcony overlooking Algiers' spacious Forum. But so disgusted are Algerians with their squabbling leaders that scarcely 500 turned out to hear Ben Bella proclaim: "The crisis is over. The Politburo's authority is restored!"

...spacious, tree-studded terrazzo terrace. The new Chase headquarters has the nation's biggest bank vault in the biggest underground banking area, the biggest automatic check-sorting center, the biggest air-conditioning unit.

...King Saud is absolutely hopeless. It is impossible to achieve anything under his rule. He not only doesn't want constitutional monarchy; he doesn't understand what it is." Talal claims that during his last hitch in the government (1960-61) Saud promised him he could proclaim a constitutional monarchy. Proclaim he did-but Saud prohibited mention of it in Saudi Arabia's press. Talal's attempts to divert Saudi Arabia's steady stream of oil money from the free-spending royal family to development projects were equally frustrating...
