Scores of times in the past year, local commanders have ousted politicians they considered corrupt. Many military men were bitterly opposed to the recent gubernatorial elections, fearing that the same old political faces would reappear. And in fact they did. A coalition of Goulart's P.T.B. labor party and the P.S.D. of ex-President Juscelino Kubitschek, stripped of his political rights for corruption, won the governorships of two key states-Minas Gerais and Guanabara (Rio). Even then, Castello Branco might have persuaded the officers to simmer down had it not been for the return to Brazil of Kubitschek from...
Resisting the temptation to use archaic dialogue, Whiting keeps his dialogue modern and even Soc Relish. Detailed arguments in the book often reappear contained in conversational sentences. For example, Huxley insists that men searching for evil do so from a sense of their own sinfulness. When the Archbishop in the play puts a temporary halt to Grandier's witch-trial and the chief exorcist complains that "the Archbishop has made evil impossible in this place," Whiting uncannily reveals the prosecutor's unconscious guilt...

After this dormant phase, chemicals or radiation can still trigger the intruder gene into becoming infective and destructive...
...threat of breakdowns in the machine can never be discounted; there is no guarantee that the old wage-price spiral with excessive labor demands resulting in inflationary prices, will not reappear. But the steel settlement just concluded is a typical example of labor's present condition and its relations with industry. A strike, while the threat was real enough did not materialize; increasingly, labor gets its results not through strikes but through other pressures, including the psychological. Steel negotiations were relatively relaxed; the big issue was not pay but fringe benefits. Labor has won the wage battles...
Castro seems to enjoy all the speculation immensely. He himself disappeared for nearly a month in 1962, only to reappear and have a high old time scotching the rumors about his demise. "If the Americans are puzzled," cried Castro on TV last week, "let them remain puzzled. If they are nervous, let them take a tranquilizer." Che "was allergic" to publicity, he explained, then quickly corrected himself to say "is allergic." If the Americans are so curious, added Castro, "Why don't they take a picture of Che with...
