...Long, Shalom. Though the Israeli government is unfreezing some $50 million in construction projects work to put 20,000 unemployed back to work, it still seems determined on more mitun. Last month it was announced that the government-backed Zim Lines' gleaming liner Shalom, long a money loser even though she is the pride of Israel's fleet, would soon be sold to a West German shipping line. "We have got to make the economy pay its own way," says Finance Ministry Director-General Jacob Arnon. "We lived for ten years without paying anything...
Robert Edgar is badly miscast as the Captain, who clearly should be fat, stupid, and cruel, not thin as a rail, witty, and effeminate. He does what he does well, but it isn't what he should do.

In New Delhi this is James Shepherd, an Indian by birth, upbringing and education, fluent in Hindi and Bengali, a working newsman since 1946 who has been reporting Indian affairs for TIME since 1953. With the reporting of Kraar, Zim and Shepherd (as well as some colorful asides from Indian Photographer T. S. Satyan, who spent two hours on the sacred waters of the Ganges to take one of the pictures for the color pages), Writer Jones had a clear and complete on-the-spot picture. This, added to his other store...
