...readers both into rebellion. New York City's three afternoon papers-World-Telegram and Sun, Post and Journal-American-have yet to recover the circulation they lost two years ago by raising the copy price from 5? to a dime. The Chicago Tribune now offers bargain advertising "zone rates" to hold fringe accounts, such as the corner grocer, who neither wants nor will pay for a citywide broadside. In Pasco, Wash., Sears, Roebuck began distributing handbill ads rather than accept the latest hike in ad rates. Moreover, newspapers, which once enjoyed a hefty 45% of the advertising pie, must...

For years the Soviet Union has pursued two easily defined aims in the Middle East: 1) the immediate one of ending Western-sponsored defense pacts and neutralizing the area, and so creating what Leninists call a "zone of peace"; 2) the ultimate, but much more ambitious aim, of turning the Middle East into a "zone of socialism." Last summer's sudden overturn of the pro-Western regime of King Feisal and Nuri asSaid in Iraq radically changed Russian aspirations. An Iraqi Communist Party emerged intact from Nuri...
