...course, P.L.O. Leader Yasser Arafat. Now the President must run the risk of souring some of those good relations by applying pressure to win a compromise. The Arab leaders clearly expect the U.S. to nudge its client, Israel, to the bargaining table and make what Cairo and Damascus regard as a reasonable peace settlement. If Carter cannot fulfill those expectations, the result could well be a Geneva-Up or Down-that collapses in frustration and anger. If Geneva collapses, as all parties concerned are aware, one terrible alternative is a fifth Middle East...
...office with John Stembler, board chairman of the National Bank of Georgia, and Robert Guyton, then being wooed-successfully-to be the N.B.G.'s new president. Lance's explanation is that he "very specifically" had the right to talk about the N.B.G. "with regard to stock and management" until the Dec. 31 divestiture date. A Lance spokesman said that the permission to be involved in selection of a new president came via an "oral understanding" with Senate Committee Chairman Ribicoff.

...onetime Italian colony that was captured by the British in 1941, Eritrea was federated with Ethiopia, under a United Nations decision, in 1952 and a decade later was formally annexed by Selassie-an action that the Eritreans still regard as outright colonialism. Their outrage sparked a tiny guerrilla uprising that eventually became a full-scale war, perhaps the largest war now being fought anywhere in the world.

...this atmosphere, the U.S. beckons as a safe haven, both for foreign companies and wealthy individuals. Today, says Rob Hazelhoff, a director of Holland's Algemene Bank Nederland, "most entrepreneurs regard the U.S. as the last bulwark of capitalism. They feel that America can hold out, and this is the main psychological factor behind the rising investment." Profit margins of U.S. corporations are now almost twice those of European firms, partly because productivity is higher. The U.S. has become something of a cheap-labor market in comparison with its European trading partners. Until the early 1970s, European labor...
...regard to my old friend Robert Motherwell's designing a label for Rothschild wines [May 30], I think you might have found it interesting to mention my name along with Picasso, Chagall, et al., as the first American to create a label for Baron Philippe de Rothschild in 1959, for one of the great vintages of this century. Motherwell himself will remember sharing my first signed bottle of 1959 Mouton when we dined with him and Helen Frankenthaler in 1962, right after I received my shipment of cases from France...
