...Often there is no room at first for a 'loyal opposition,' for its sole aim after independence could only be overthrow of the independence movement itself," says Tanganyika's Nyerere. Mboya, too, is a professed democrat, but he does not guarantee that pure Western-style freedom can be achieved. "I am flattered by those who demand perfection from us," he says. "The paraphernalia of Western democracy are not necessarily best suited for Africa . . . New nations are bound to experiment with the institutions they inherit...
...dingoes. Trade-named Librium by New Jersey's Roche Laboratories, it is technically methamino-diazepoxide, a synthetic chemical unrelated to previous ataractic drugs. Finding the right dose for individual patients is admittedly tricky. But the manufacturers claim that when this is achieved, Librium comes close to producing pure relief from strain without drowsiness or dulling of mental processes. Also claimed: unusual freedom from harmful side effects-the commonest one reported, with high doses, is impaired coordination...

What we can find are the seeds of something clean and pure. My generation throws away all hope that one can go beyond the everyday.

...made surgically pure by being pumped through a 7-ft. cube housing 72 small cylinders, each containing an ultraviolet arc. The cylinders were designed so that every passing air particle swirled within 3 in. of a germ-killing arc light. Since ultraviolet rays kill germs more effectively at close range-their germicidal effect is proportionate to the square root of the distance-a microbe had only 1/256th as much chance of surviving a trip through the cylinders as it would have under an ultraviolet lamp hanging 4 ft. above the operating table...
