It is a task she is looking forward...

...trend toward trimness is reflected in the few totally new 1976 cars. One is GM's Chevette, a hatchback "sub-subcompact" that is being built in the U.S. to compete in the same price ($3,000 to $3,500) and mileage (roughly 38 m.p.g. on the highway) class as Volkswagen's Rabbit. Ford last week announced that it would rush a minicar entry of its own Into production in Europe in time to reach the U.S. market in 1977.

They are also among the most important politically. On the one hand, Pyongyang views them as the major obstacle to its unifying the Korean peninsula under Communist rule; on the other, Seoul sees the American presence (although reduced considerably from its 1953 peak of 325,000 men) as both...

...places with Energy Minister Eric Varley, a stolid Wilson loyalist who had also campaigned against the EEC but less noisily than Benn. Education Minister Reginald Prentice, a leading pro-Marketeer, was switched to the Ministry of Overseas Development as a gesture of evenhandedness. Although the Overseas Ministry is technically sub-Cabinet, Prentice was allowed to keep his Cabinet rank when Home Secretary Roy Jenkins threatened to resign over his fellow moderate's demotion.
