...that there was time in that session to return to world-scale questions. On Viet Nam, De Gaulle and Brezhnev found it enough to agree that neither Red China nor the U.S. should ultimately win the war and occupy the country. Both concurred in their oft-stated demands for "respect for the 1954 Geneva Accords" and establishment of an independent Viet Nam, "sovereign and free of all foreign intervention."

They have comprised a mint of Rockefellers, a socko of showbiz moguls from MCA's Jules Stein to the late Billy Rose...
Words & Action. While Police Superintendent Orlando Wilson has earned nationwide acclaim for his success in reforming a force long noted for corruption, he has found it no easy task to instill the cop on the beat with a respect for minorities. "There is very, very big resentment of the police out there," says the Rev.
