...more than two years, the U.S. economy is entirely free of wage and price controls. As President Eisenhower last week struck off the last controls-on machine tools, steel, chemicals and other basic commodities freedom brought only a few price boosts.

While some of the guests went outside to see the newcomer's coach, which shone like a mirror and was drawn by a horse with flaming eyes, the stranger danced with Blanche, who trembled as he whispered: "How pretty you are!" Then they passed close to the Moreaus' two-year-old son, who shrieked, "Bru! Bru!" (Burn! Burn!). Seized with a dreadful presentiment, the mother dipped holy water and sprinkled the stranger. The Devil-for it was he-turned hideous, jumped to the ceiling, then ran right through the stone wall and vanished...
