Smiles & Hopes. For the record, non-Communist Venezuelan leaders are making mild protestations. Rafael Caldera, speaking for his Christian Socialist Copei, Democratic Action (A.D.) and the Democratic Republican Union (U.R.D.), politely turned down the idea of a Popular Front because of the Communist Party's "concept of state order and its international obligations." Last week A.D. Boss Rómulo Betancourt said that his party "does not want Communist help," and Admiral Wolfgang Larrazábal, chief of the five-man military junta, declared that he was a Roman Catholic and that "Catholicism and Communism are antagonists...

Wynder, M.D. (TIME, May 5), who escorted Kim on a tour of Manhattan night life...

Having promoted Junior to chairman of the Dominican Joint Chiefs of Staff just after the boy flunked at Fort Leavenworth, the dictator followed up by calling home all 30 Dominicans who were studying at U.S. military establishments. He threatened to end all military and aid pacts with the U.S.. including the one under which the U.S. runs a missile-tracking station in the Dominican Republic. He sniffed that since the Army Command and General Staff College has become a "political tool," its diploma...
