History is littered with the wrecks of great enterprises that failed simply because of their initial success-because, as things get easier, free peoples habitually slacken off. The Soviet technique at Geneva was to see to what extent outward bonhomie could save them from having to make real alterations in course...
...Like Gangsters." At first, the U.S. Secret Service seemed determined to help the Russians' case. Unlike the waving Russians, Ike traveled in a closed car-to save trouble, he had ordered over from Paris the 1942 Cadillac sedan he used during the war, now inherited by SHAPE Commander Al Gruenther.

Beneath a great tract of Grant Park, facing Michigan Avenue...
