...tapes are running regularly on 30 or more stations and, in addition to last week's NBC telecast (cost: $250,000), the Wallace camp has bought an other half-hour for national showing on ABC this week. Money seems to be no serious problem. Though the figures are secret, one estimate places contributions at $40,000 a day. Featuring a special pitch for funds at the end of each show, the television broadcasts even pay for themselves...

In fact, many Basque priests advocate separatism as bluntly as E.T.A. guerrillas, defiantly fly the illegal Basque flag and chafe under Spain's state-supported church hierarchy. Two weeks ago, 47 young priests staged a vigil in the bishop's palace in Bilbao for six days, left only when the church agreed to demote their vicar-general and name a committee to study their demands for freedom from "temporal interference...

Usually odorless and colorless, they were accidentally discovered by German researchers in 1936 and were a closely held secret until the end of World War II, when the Allies captured Nazi stores. Releasing a flood of the body chemical acetylcholine, which sets off muscle contractions, nerve gases cause uncontrollable convulsions in their victims. By one scientist's account, according to Hersh, "The pupils, bladder and alimentary canal constrict, the penis erects, the tear and saliva glands secrete and the heart slows." The victim...
