...cite many examples, such as the roving missionary in Tanganyika who would be disappointed not to get our current issue on his weekly shopping trip to Dar es Salaam. British commercial travelers, returning from the Far East with a great hunger for the latest news of the Suez crisis, are delighted to find TIME in the bustling Arabian Sea port of Aden. And at Bishoftu, Swedish airmen training Ethiopian air force crews can now read the news of the world in TIME long before hometown newspapers reach them...
