...Vienna, as U.S. representative to the new International Atomic Energy Agency, Deputy U.S. Representative to the U.N. James J. Wadsworth. A onetime (1931-41) Republican member of the New York State legislature, Wadsworth, 51, served in a variety of federal executive posts (e.g., ECA, Civil Defense) before Ike appointed him to the U.N. in 1953, is a logical choice for the new job: at the U.N., Ambassador Wadsworth was the key U.S. negotiator in the talks that set up the agency...
Vermont's progressive-minded George D. (for David) Aiken, 64, was something of a "Modern Republican" in the U.S. Senate before Dwight D. (for David) Eisenhower made bird colonel. Last week Aiken applauded the politics represented by the President's favorite ''Modern Republican" term, but favored throwing the term overboard.

I am prepared to help, provided I have a promise to open a debate on the problems of the political regime." To start with, gruffed the old pasha, let the government reconstitute the little province of Kirsehir, which it split up three years...
...Hint. The next move is up to Premier Menderes, who has hinted that he might begin by relaxing enforcement of his controversial laws. One conspicuous place where he might start is the case of Kasim Gulek, the Columbia University Ph.D. who is secretary-general of the opposition Republican Party. Gulek missed last week's party congress; he was in Istanbul to defend himself against one of the dozen or more harassing charges the government has brought against him, trying to silence his political speaking...
