Hinckle also quarreled with Keating over story ideas. While Hinckle favored conventional exposés of the CIA and the Warren Commission Report, Keating proposed more offbeat investigations. He suggested sending an undercover man to Louisiana's Plaquemines Parish to poke around a rumored "slave camp" for civil rights workers. Not only that, charged a Ramparts man, he even wanted to equip the gumshoe with a hollow heel containing a compass-so that he could find his way back again...
While Krupp is by no means bankrupt, insiders feel that the managerial showdown should have come much sooner. Alfried Krupp, remote and embittered ever since his six-year Allied imprisonment for using wartime slave labor, has grown increasingly pained over the fact that his only son, Arndt, 29, has shown more inclination to fly with the European jet set than take over the company. Meanwhile, critics charge, Krupp's expansive general manager, Berthold Beitz, has overextended the company when he should have been cutting down its unprofitable operations in coal and steel.

...African slave labor once scraped fortunes for British planters from the soil of these lush islands, but today they are rich only in scenery, have precarious, one-crop economies, which have been hurt by increased competition abroad.

What is a father to do, muses Tenintius as he disconsolately fondles a slave girl, his heart heavy and his country destitute. Cloud-borne, the answer descends heavily from the grid. The goddess Diana (Anthony Fingleton) has landed in Beotia. As it turns out, the goddess of chastity, and the moon ("Would you like to see why?"), can't find any takers on Olympus. She's come to earth to correct all that. "People," she sings philosophically, "are better than nothing...
