...Menace. General Humberto Delgado's old friends in the government now view him as "slightly mad" and "over-ambitious." Salazar's National Union Party, unable to pin the Communist label on a career officer, has instead called Delgado "a public menace...
Painters have ransacked the heavens and earth for inspiration, recorded the sea in all its moods, discovered the bird's-eye view centuries before the airplane. Only recently has the artist begun trying to conquer a new world-the vast reaches under the sea. Last month Canadian-born Marcel Cardinal. 38, now busily skindiving for fresh impressions off the French Riviera, exhibited his underwater seascapes in London's Matthiesen Gallery.

Antitrust lawyers had originally thought that the Government might regard the distribution in the same tax-free manner as it treated dispersal of stock by companies broken up by the Utilities Holding Company Act. The difference apparently is due to the Government's view that the utilities were operating legally prior to the law's passage, whereas Du Pont was found guilty of violating the 44-year-old Clayton Antitrust Act. The man who will decide what Du Pont must do is Chicago's Federal Judge Walter J. LaBuy, whose original ruling...
