...rose to 150 per lb. v. 70 pre-Tet; fish went from 370 to $1.44 per lb., and live chickens from $1.50 to $7.00 apiece. But farmers in the area were in such a rush to take advantage of the high prices that they hurried supplies into the city. Result: prices dipped downward again-though they still remain about 15% above pre-Tet levels. Despite the higher prices and some temporary shortages of vegetables and chicken, most Saigonese have continued to eat fairly well; there have been no serious nutritional deficiencies in their diet. Against the possibility of another attack...
...Laborites bowed to mounting public pressure and rammed emergency legislation through Parliament to shut off the flood of Asians from East Africa. The British have become increasingly concerned about the thousands of Asians entering the country each month (v. only about 500 a month in former years) as a result of Kenya's intensified job and economic discrimination against them. Under the new law, Britain will admit a fixed total of 1,500 Asian household heads a year, plus their dependents. This quota covers not only the Asians still in Kenya...

In fact, in states like Florida, where the law forbids payment of alimony to a woman who has been divorced on grounds of her adultery, judges often overlook perfectly well-documented adultery charges and grant the divorce for extreme cruelty so that alimony may be assigned to a woman who needs it.

Toying with time while juggling ribaldry and death, Director Dusan Makavejev made Love Affair the way an action painter attacks a canvas. As a result, there are many happy accidents and not a few disasters. The movie is at its Rabelaisian best when it sticks to salacity, at its worst when it attempts sagacity by commenting on life's meaninglessness. In the West the age of the Theater and the Cinema of the Absurd has rendered such Dada as dead as the dodo. But in countries with a history of repressive censorship, nonsense undoubtedly serves a therapeutic purpose...
