...pledges were to buy shares of the Endicott-Johnson Corp., the Triple Cities' biggest employer and the nation's second largest shoe manufacturer (first: International Shoe Co.).

Last week, as his own summit meeting in Moscow of the world's Communist leaders broke up in guarded politeness, Nikita Khrushchev announced that he would like to come back to Manhattan next spring and have all the world's leaders come too. After a state visit from Cambodia's amiably neutralist Premier Prince Norodom Sihanouk, Khrushchev put his signature to a declaration that Russia and Cambodia "regard as advisable...
