...chaos. First, the charismatic commander of the neutralist army, General Kong Le, flew off to Thailand in a huff when three of his colonels challenged his right to give the orders. He was already unpopular because of three "dragon's eggs" given him by a superstitious peasant. Draconic rage at their theft supposedly brought floods down upon the land (TIME, Oct. 21), so his rest cure in Bangkok for what he called a "sprained arm" was likely to be lengthy.

...World Treating You? by Roger Milner. With the rage and frustration of so many Samsons, British playwrights after Suez began bringing down England's temples of hypocrisy, pomposity, caste and class snobbery.

"The King," they called him, and he lived the part - 18 secretaries to answer his fan mail, a 280-acre estate near Baltimore, 300 Great Danes, and a gold-trimmed Marmon limousine. He made and spent $6,000,000 in five years, and then his secret got out - a wife and five children. The fans faded, the 1929 crash wiped...
