Polite But Hesitant. On his tour of Europe, Under Secretary Dillon was getting a polite hearing, and a general assent that it was time for Europeans to shoulder more of the burden. The British and French were happy to point a finger at West Germany as the laggard in West Europe's aid spending. In Bonn, key Cabinet members heard Dillon out sympathetically, but the new 1960 budget introduced in the Bundestag last week earmarked less than $25 million for direct governmental technical assistance to other countries. (NATO partner Germany also spends only one-fourth of its budget...
...ascetic Premier Karim Kassem snatched a few hours sleep nightly on a couch near his office desk. Visitors to his Baghdad Defense Ministry headquarters were impressed by his tightly reined self-control and the masklike grin he wore. But the assassin's bullets that crumpled his left shoulder last October seem to have shattered the mask, and perhaps shattered Kassem's tight self-control as well...
...shoddy chauvinism, inspired by racial hatred and a desire for personal gain." Peking sent what Indonesia's Foreign Minister Subandrio called "as peremptory a diplomatic note" as Indonesia had ever received.

But Huff is at his rugged best when he knifes through the line and "red-dogs" a quarterback as he fades to pass...
...have football fans seen such a numbing fullback as the Cleveland Browns' young (23) Jimmy Brown. Magnificently muscled (6 ft. 2 in., 228 Ibs.), Brown has a sprinter's speed, strength enough to carry along a brace of tacklers. When he hits defensive backs with a low shoulder, he can send them cartwheeling. Last year Brown smashed 1,527 yds. in twelve games to shatter the league ground-gaining record by a fabulous 381 yds. And even the lowly Los Angeles Rams, at the bottom of the Western Conference, can offer Halfback Ollie Matson, 29, whose stride...
