...Japanese look in motorbikes is a hot new trend in U.S. transportation. They are buzzing all over the place-putt-putting up and down San Francisco's hills, snaking doctor, lawyer and merchant chief through the thromboid Los Angeles freeways, threading Chicago's Loop at rush hour, beating the parking problem on Manhattan's Madison Avenue. In suburbs, they bring home the bacon and buzz off to the neighbors. In hunting country they go camping and trail-riding. On campus they go on dates and even (when it rains) into dormitories. West Coast beaches have been swarming...
...next day more mobs formed, and Negroes continued to slip inside stores, rush out with merchandise. Mayor James Tate invoked an 1850 law to ban everyone not on a valid, pressing errand from the streets in a 125-block area. Some 300 state troopers also stood by. Some semblance of order was restored, but officials were prepared for more violence at any moment...

Münch and Heggemann boldly rang the villa's doorbell and demanded to see Zech-Nenntwich. In a four...
...rush in. Though prosperous and expanding, Europe is no pushover market. Most Europeans feel that American firms do not sufficiently study their potential market, location and labor force beforehand. Too often they send over flying squads of vice presidents without serious preparation to make a crash decision in a matter of days. With time for only a ledger-eye view, they often wind up either buying nothing or buying unwisely. When the Monsanto Co. recently decided to set up a plant in a Luxembourg town, it discovered too late that the town has acute shortages of both water and labor...
