...near the summer palace of Prince Rainier and Princess Grace, has proved to be admirably suited for the operation. The location is nearer Europe's geographical center. Ready and available were broadcasting facilities installed by Adolf Hitler. Trans World rented the installation from Radio Monte Carlo with a ten-year lease, automatically renewable...
...competitive scramble among TV-phonograph makers, any new sales idea is as good as gold. Last week Magnavox Co. announced one that it hopes will win nuggets of customer good will: a ten-year unconditional guarantee on its diamond stylus phonograph needles.

Time and again they have called for a "Marshall Plan" for Latin America. Last week they got one. In two historic messages, one to Latin American diplomats at a White House reception and the other to Congress, President Kennedy launched what he called a "vast, new ten-year plan for the Americas" and promised massive aid, "just as we helped to provide the resources adequate to help rebuild the economies of Western Europe."

France has fewer inhabitants per square mile than Switzerland, and the population over the past ten years has risen at the low rate of only 7% (compared with 18% in the U.S.). The influx of new blood could be beneficial; Southern France in particular could use Algeria's skilled farmers. West Germany and The Netherlands both absorbed proportionately more refugees from East Germany and Indonesia...
