...Arafat was caught in his usual dilemma. He needed a strong show of support in Algiers to give Hussein at least a tacit go-ahead. At the same time, he wanted to preserve a P.L.O. position ambiguous enough to satisfy the hard-liners who oppose the Reagan plan or any other concessions to reach a real peace in the Middle East. The danger was that the P.L.O., a loose coalition of eight groups that run the gamut from Arafat's own moderate Fatah organization to the hardline Marxist Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine led by George Habash...
...Palestinian officials in the West Bank, thus bypassing Jordan, Israel and even the P.L.O. Arafat and the moderates also won approval of a proposal adopted at the Arab summit in Fez, Morocco, last fall that called for peaceful coexistence between Israel and all Arab states, in effect giving tacit recognition to Israel's right to exist...
After one curtain call, Tune addressed the audience in an engagingly familiar manner. "When the curtain went up, you clapped," he said. "What was it? Tell us so we'll be able to do it tomorrow night." Then in a tacit recognition of the show's greatest strength, he led the audience in a refrain from "'S Wonderful."

Tune seem to express his recognition that My One and Only is far from full...
...final agreement to formalize the GM-Toyota linkup must still be signed, and it will surely be opposed by other U.S. automakers on antitrust grounds.

Bargaining between the two companies consumed nearly a year and dragged on longer than GM expected. One major sticking point was resolved when Toyota apparently agreed to allow the new plant to be unionized by the United Auto...
...Reagan and his Secretary of State, George Shultz, the signs had been unusually auspicious. Hussein had publicly interpreted the Fez summit communique as a tacit recognition of Israel. During the past year he had repeatedly advised the P.L.O. that no Middle East settlement was possible without recognition of Israel. He had also sought a mandate from Arafat to join the negotiations on the P.L.O.'s behalf. Administration officials noted that, even as Hussein was conferring with Reagan last week, a chief aide to Arafat, Khalid al Hassan, was staying at the same hotel as Hussein and was being kept...
