...fuels (TIME, April 1), in which it is joined with hydrogen or other elements to generate infinitely greater power with less volume than present fuels.* The U.S. Defense Department has already invested $100 million in high-energy fuel development. U.S. Borax & Chemical is negotiating with top chemical firms to commit part of its borax production (70% of U.S. output) to making high-energy fuels. Should boron become the key element in the fuels of the future, the industry estimates that demand for borax, which has already doubled in ten years, would jump from its present 1,000,000 tons annually...
...scientists who disagree most sharply with Commissioner Libby are the geneticists. At the University of California, Geneticist Curt Stern, onetime member of the ABC's biological advisory commit tee, says of his colleagues: "Every one of them thinks that damage is being done." Dr. Stern thinks that Libby should stick to his own field (physics and chemis try).

The director, Jack Garfein, and the scriptwriter, Calder Willingham--who reworked his own 1947 novel and his 1953 Broadway play, both called End As a Man-- appear infuriatingly unwilling to commit themselves about what they are doing. All that can be said with complete confidence is that, in a style which captures much of the spontaneity of a really first-rate documentary, they present a story which centers on the career of one Jocko De Paris, a cadet in a Southern military...
Defense Minister Franz Josef Strauss has never been quite frank about his plans for West Germany's defense contribution to NATO. His predecessor, Theodor Blank, promised to field twelve German divisions and 500,000 men by 1960, and commit all of them to NATO. But when Strauss took office last year, he began revising Blank's program and scaling down manpower targets. Last week, in an interview with the military analyst of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung...
