In 1948, after she had borne him one daughter, he divorced Egypt's Fawzia and three years later married the handsome half-German, half-Iranian Soraya. Despite Soraya's famed fiery temper, it was with regret that the Shah divorced her in 1958, apparently convinced that she was barren -a charge that makes Soraya angry...
Before the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals last week, white taxpayers and N.A.A.C.P. lawyers challenged Davis' move. Appearing for the defense. Louisiana's Attorney General Jack P. F.

At the same time, he knows that people have little faith in Eisenhower's pleas that they trust his planning when they are about to elect a new President. Even such a master as Nixon, however, would have a hard time trumpeting "enough missiles" and "more missiles" in the same speeches.
