...sales, are hurt by the low supply of cattle. Says Sherwood O. Berg, dean of the University of Minnesota's Agriculture Institute: "Right now meat packers are operating under capacity. They are chasing animals to keep their manned production lines going." Nor are supermarkets in very good shape. At Chicago's Jewel Food Stores, the profit margin has slipped slightly since Phase II began. The huge A. & P. chain lost money last year. New consumer-protection laws have also boosted the super-marketeers' costs; they often have to put meat in relatively expensive plastic see-through trays...
...getting the commission's key agriculture portfolio for themselves. At any rate, Mansholt is certain to bring new life to meetings of the commissioners, who are appointed by their respective governments and are given more to haggling over detail than defining any vision of what the future political shape of Europe should be. Mansholt's predecessors -with the exception of Germany's Walter Hallstein, who served from 1958 to 1967-have set a pattern of weak and even meek presidents. That era is clearly over...

...growth of Michael (and Al Pacino is startlingly good in the role) is what gives the film its shape. Emerging a hero from World War II, graduating from Dartmouth with honors in math, he goes straight into Ivy Leavue blase--even picking up a cultivated, long-legged blonde from New Hampshire. Only when Papa Corleone is nearly killed in gangline fire does the son test his cunning and strength in one-to-one, life-or-death arenas. Michael turns to crime. His rationale: all twentieth-century life is political, politics is just power-playing, and one mode of warfare...
