...private investors in Argentina. Kaiser will put up some $10 million, mostly in automaking equipment, and IAME will put up $5,700,000. Planned yearly production (by 1957): 40,000 vehicles-passenger cars, station wagons, jeeps and light trucks. Argentina has been car-hungry since 1947, when restrictions to save dollar exchange cut imports of U.S. cars to a trickle. With customers eager and competition largely fenced out, Kaiser hopes to accomplish in Argentina what he has failed to do in the U.S.: make money out of automaking...
...much to be grateful for. When Paz Estenssoro took power 2½ years ago, he was less than an even bet to last six months. Bolivia faced starvation, counterrevolution, a serious Communist threat, an empty treasury and a world glut of tin, its only valuable export. The U.S. helped save the situation by sending free wheat and buying tin for the strategic stockpile. Cost of grant-aid to the U.S.: $17 million-10? for each U.S. citizen. Two and a half years later, Bolivia still needs more loans and grants. But it has a better chance than ever before, because...

In the tenth, the score tied 2-2 and two men on, Durocher called on "Dusty" Rhodes, his first-rate, second-string outfielder, who had been a sensational pinch hitter all season. Dusty Rhodes popped the first pitch into a lazy arc along the rightfield foul line...

As a result, despite subsidies, many shippers feel they can save money by placing orders for new vessels in German and Japanese shipyards (TIME, May 17). The present Maritime Board is trying to win the confidence of shippers not only through its new program but also by the prompt payment of back subsidies. In 1953, for example, the Government had subsidy claims dating back...
...suit and a pressure suit, plus helmet and gloves, the pilot must wear protection against cold and immersion (he might have to bail out over the ocean). This means a quilted "liner," much like the Chinese army's winter gear (gadgeteers are trying to save weight and bulk by getting rid of the quilting), with a waterproof suit worn over everything...
