Pausing in Geneva while preparing for his two-month crusade in Switzerland and West Germany, Evangelist Billy Graham plunged into U.S. politics by announcing that religion-meaning John F. Kennedy's Roman Catholicism-was a legitimate issue in the campaign and would be decisive in the outcome. "A man's religion cannot be separated from his person.'' said North Carolina Baptist Graham.

Graham added, because the Roman Catholic Church is "not only a religious...
...Work. In Lee. Mass.. Joseph R. Dischino. sentenced to nine months in jail for having two wives and two families in towns only eight miles apart, was also fired from his job as a high school teacher whose main course was ''Problems of Democracy."

Even though this has been a bad year for poppies-there was a two-month drought in the hills-the Meo are getting only the equivalent of $20 a kilo (2.2 lbs.). The same kilo, when it reaches the Laotian capital of Vientiane, will be worth $60; at Saigon in South Viet Nam it will bring $1,000, and when it is safely put ashore...
...sensed the change, Adlai Stevenson (who celebrates his 60th birthday this week) did nothing to counteract it. Next week he will leave for a two-month tour of Latin America-about as far away as he can get from the eye of the political storm. As he packed for his trip, he announced that he has declined an invitation to be a delegate to the Los Angeles convention in July (he will attend as an observer). "I think my district will be represented in the convention by the president of a corsetmakers' union," he said wryly. "And I might...
