...conference to work on some of the other changes that the Finance Committee wrote into the House-passed bill, e.g., the committee slashed the bill's time span from five years to three and the President's maximum tariff-cutting authority from 25% to 15%. Likely conference result: a four-year, 20% compromise. That would still be something of a victory for the Administration's freer-trade program: the original reciprocal trade act has been extended ten times since its birth in 1934, but never for more than three years at a stretch...
...once again that real jazz must be improvised. Pianist Hawes, Guitarist Jim Hall, Bass Player Red Mitchell and Drummer Bruz Freeman turned up at the studio one night and piled into Jordu and Groovin' High, and from there on "we just played because we love to play." The result is one of the few genuine jam sessions on LPs. The quartet offers some effervescent readings of blues and ballads, including four numbers composed on the spot by Pianist Hawes. For listeners who can stay with Hawes's clipped, glistering piano through 16 selections, the set kindles a kind...

...panic that followed the Suez crisis. European oil stocks are at high surplus levels, big enough to handle any short-term emergency. France has enough oil on hand for ten weeks, Germany for twelve weeks, Great Britain for four weeks. The industry has developed greater flexibility as a result of the valuable lessons learned during the Suez incident. A tanker shortage no longer exists; some 437 vessels totaling 7,000,000 deadweight tons are laid up in Western shipyards ready to maintain a flow of oil to any beleaguered nation...
...government keeps tight control on the industry to curb overproduction and bolster prices. It also cooperates with the sugar workers' unions in crippling growers with restrictions that tie the industry to old-fashioned methods. Cuban millers, for example, cannot build a factory without destroying the old one first. Result: Cuba has not had a new sugar mill since...
