...speak with authority in Europe, where even nonsocialist governments believe in more planning than the U.S. does. France is in the midst of its fourth postwar economic plan.

Not long ago, the Common Market paid Massé the compliment of setting up a similar body to plan for the Six. An expert in the complex...
PROKOFIEV: SYMPHONY NO. 5 (Erich Leinsdorf conducting the Boston Symphony; RCA Victor). Only a conductor with the sophistication and logic of Leinsdorf can keep rein on the tugging emotional and intellectual strands of Prokofiev's greatest symphony.

Hyman concentrates on the richly profitable middle ground of spinning and weaving fabrics, particularly Viyella. With this method and with a beady eye on business practices by his "postgraduate students," the professor has turned a $200,000 loss when he moved in into profits of $900,000 last year...
