Lodge's eagerness to return to Massachusetts had been well known for more than a month (TIME, Oct. 17). He gave "personal matters at home" as his reason for leaving. Except for a few months' leave, Lodge has seen little of his family, which includes two married sons and ten grandchildren, since he became President Kennedy's Ambassador to Viet Nam in 1963. "I am not a diplomat. I am a family man, and I miss my family," Lodge explained. Lodge probably would have stayed on if he had seen any sign of movement in the talks...

The U.S. trade surplus used to average $5 billion a year. This year the surplus will total less than $1 billion, mainly because imports have risen 50% over the past three years, twice as fast as exports. Much of the blame can be laid to U.S. inflation, but not all of it. Farm exports have fallen sharply, largely because Common Market countries have unloaded surplus grain, chickens and other produce abroad at subsidized prices...
