...TIME correspondents who visited dozens of toxic dumps and waste sites across the country to get material for this week's cover, the story entailed some eerie hazards. "If you are reporting a riot and get hit with a bottle," says New York Bureau Chief Peter Stoler, a veteran of the science and environment beat, "you either come home well or you don't. But with hazardous waste, you become acutely aware of every sneeze, every rash. You wonder about being well 20 years from now." Chatting with fire fighters near a blazing Elizabeth, N.J., dump site...
...available to it all the accusations before granting Trifa citizenship and reopened the case simply because of political pressure. He does not deny that Trifa made anti-Semitic statements, was a wholehearted supporter of the pro-Nazi Legionary movement, and gave a speech on the eve of the 1941 riot.

"After seeing protesters elsewhere shaking their fists and screaming, this is soul-rending," remarked a West German tourist last week, as she contemplated the eerie calm hanging over Lenin Shipyard. "Nobody is misbehaving," said a square-set foreman, puffing on a cigarette. "This is no time for fun. We're all in this together...
...pantomime scenes worthy of Chaplin and Keaton, sends them tumbling. He takes one demon's weapon and twirls it on one finger, like a gyroscope; he grabs another one and flicks it away with his heel. No one in heaven or earth can touch this hilarious spirit of riot and disorder, and peace comes only when he finds his way home to the Flower-Fruit Mountain. Equally funny is an other bit of pantomime, The Three-Forked Crossroad. In a case of mistaken identities at a country inn, two men simulate a sword fight in the dark. Squinting through...
