...Swan & Symbol. As a result, the hotel missed an avalanche of yen during the 1964 Olympics. With the 1970 World's Fair at Osaka coming up, the hotel's crusty president, Tetsuzo Inumaru, 80, decided to wait no longer. Early last month he announced that the old Imperial would be demolished, except for its 1958 annex of 550 rooms, to make way for a modern 18-story hotel with 1,000 additional rooms. Protests, editorials and cables from abroad poured in. The influential architect Kiyoshi Higuchi called the old Imperial "a swan afloat on a lake." Young Japanese...
...Then the symbol of money would have been enlarged by the substance of mores. The possibility is hinted at in the pointed performances of Nelson and Bel Geddes. As their faces fall apart with their world, the desolating emptiness that is left comes not from a shortage of cash but from a dearth of purpose...
Important for both Christian and Jewish history, however, is the similarity between the Essene rights and early Christian rituals. The Essenes had a sacramental meal which included the eating of the "feast of leviathan" and closely parallels the Lord's supper and the Eucharist rite.

The biggest effect-accompanied by some temporary alarums-came in the gold market. Speculators poured buy orders into the eight-nation London gold pool. In a few hours, they...
...same as those for present flights that require a change of planes. Because such costs are better suited to American pocketbooks, little change seems likely in existing travel patterns; last year 20,000 Americans visited Russia while only 3,000 Russians came to the U.S. But as a symbol of U.S.-Russian cooperation, the reciprocal flight should eventually stimulate two-way traffic on the bridges the U.S. is trying to build with Eastern Europe. Best guess is that the new service will be under way, barring some unforeseen spasm in U.S.-Soviet relations, by early spring...
