...country has no reason to restrict the mere possession of firearms: it is their illegal use that produces tragedy. Restricting possession of arms for self-defense and sport would restrict only the law-abiding citizens; criminals would continue to 1) smuggle guns in from out of the country, 2) steal guns, 3) make guns, and/or 4) use other weapons...
...Russia insist that the treaty would not restrict the peaceful development of atomic energy and that they would share any peaceful scientific fallout from their nuclear-weaponry programs. As with the Partial Test-Ban Treaty, France and Red China are not expected to sign the non-proliferation treaty.

It is to mesh the Continent's money, manpower and management by tearing down the old nationalistic walls that divide its markets, restrict competition and protect inefficiency. That prescription is already obvious to almost everybody in the Atlantic Community-except, of course, De Gaulle. "We must become modern in our heads, not only in our gadgets," says Olivetti Managing Director Aurelio Peccei. "It is inconceivable that we in Europe are still bound by the nation-state concept...
