...works for a living, but Princess Alexandra, 26, was hardly rewriting Cinderella. Angus James Bruce Ogilvy, 34, is the handsome, well-heeled second son of the Earl of Airlie, whose ancient Scottish clan (motto: "To the End") won its English title for supporting Charles I in the Civil War-and lost it for 81 years after fighting with Bonnie Prince Charlie against Alexandra's ancestor, George II.

The President places great emphasis on the fact that a strong U.S. economy is crucial in the cold war-and that reasonably cooperative labor-management relationships are vital to the economy.
