...united front Ulbricht even appealed to the Soviet Union to call a halt to the trafficking with Bonn. It did no good. The Russians feared that their orders might not be heeded and might even alienate some countries that they are trying to enlist for support in their quarrel with Red China. Despite their usual cries about German militarism, they are not trying to stop West Germany's diplomatic and commercial drive to the East...
Down on Dallas. Despite the even tone of the narrative, Manchester manages to say enough to stir up several storms. He contends that Kennedy went to Texas to patch up a quarrel between the followers of conservative Governor John Connally Jr., and those of liberal Senator Ralph Yarborough. If there is a villain (other than Oswald) in the Manchester piece, it is Connally, who-says Manchester-wanted to use the presidential visit to serve his own political ends. Calling a press conference, Connally insisted that Kennedy came to Texas to mend his own political fortunes, not to resolve a local...
Poland's millennium in 1966, the anniversary of the country's conversion to Christianity, was as much a quarrel as it was a celebration. The country's Communist leaders were indefatigable in their search for ways to foul up the festivities.

"We know nothing about the dispute except what we read in the papers," said Monsignor Fausto Vallaine, speaking for the Vatican. At week's end, though, there were rumors that a papal emissary was already in Warsaw to talk about the seminaries. But remembering Gomulka's rude veto of a papal visit during the millennium, few observers thought that the state was about to modify its stand. And no one expected that the rugged old cardinal...
Powerful Prelate. Being called a heretic is nothing new for Pike, who last week resigned the honorary title of auxiliary bishop given him by his diocese in order not to embarrass or involve his successor in the quarrel. Time and again since his consecration, Pike has been denounced by clergy and laymen as an apostate in bishop's clothing for his heterodox views. But never before have such accusations been leveled at him by a fellow bishop, much less so influential a prelate as Henry Louttit, 63, a Southern moderate who is a member of the church...
