Despite protests from Look, which pruned 1,600 words from the 60,000-word text, Germany's Der Stern, the Holland weekly Revue and the Danish daily Berlingske Tidende are going ahead with plans to publish the uncut original, which will certainly appear shortly thereafter in the U.S. Even so, attorneys met daily in Manhattan to work out a Look-like settlement with Harper & Row, publishers of the 300,000-word manuscript.
