...substantially hardening ICBM sites at a smaller cost ($6 billion to $7 billion). The Pentagon wants to do that in addition to Safeguard; the Air Force is already seeking out "hard rock" silo locations that would make ICBMs more resistant even to multimegaton near misses. Wiesner, Rathjens and Weinberg suggest that the number of ICBMs could be doubled for the price of Safeguard, which would mean that more than 1,000 missiles would survive an attack by the 420 SS-9s that the Pentagon's Foster hypothesized. Wohlstetter answers: "There are safer and cheaper ways of getting [an assured...
...Medical Journal, Dr. O. Margaret Garson and Meryl K. Robson moved a little closer to blaming LSD directly for the abnormalities. "The association between the ingestion of lysergide and the occurrence of acute leukemia may be casual rather than causal," they wrote, "but certain unusual features in our case suggest that it may be causal." Among these features were the patient's unusual bone-marrow chromosome pattern and the presence of large cells containing multiple micronucleoli. Dr. Lionel Grossbard and colleagues at Columbia's College of Physicians and Surgeons, who reported the case of the U.S. college student...
Instead of being rational moral alternatives as in the analytic style, characters assume greater complexity, sometimes taking on the character of psychological archetypes whose power can be for good or evil. In the hands of someone whose sensibility is as acute as Franju's, this style of film can suggest moral facets of characters and events which one hadn't suspected, and create a world whose moral structure is highly ordered.

...ultimate accolade to an artist's consistency-in any medium-is the suffix "esque" at the end of his name. To say a film is "Felliniesque," for example, is to suggest operatic and surrealistic fantasies, or the mixture of brio and disgust with which Fellini views society. "Godardesque" implies the nervous tics and mannerisms of an artist whose creative palsy can produce intriguing collages but never a totally complete vision. "Antonioniesque" suggests the world as a chessboard, full of malignant surfaces and doomed figures. "Pennesque," "Nicholsesque," "Kubrick-esque"-the labels refuse to stick. Yet the time...
...Federal Reserve has misread the economy twice in the past three years and has prematurely expanded credit. It is not likely to do so again until the signs are unmistakably clear that inflation has been reversed. The latest readings of the consumer price index and the leading indicators suggest that what the Federal Reserve and the Nixon Administration have done so far is right. Now the Administration can demonstrate political courage by continuing on course, and Congress can do the same by maintaining the surtax...
