...branch "revolt" (TIME, Oct. 6). He can count on support from Ramon Castillo. He remains in the good graces of the U.S. State Department. But the Radical Party, mindful of his strong-arm treatment of its leaders when he was last in power, will be out to nail him. Consensus: dark horse he may be, but not too dark to wind up atop the Conservative Party's ticket. If so, he will probably be elected, although Argentina is overwhelmingly Radical...

Casey, will have a chance to write editorials for readers under 40. The Times has lately plumped for social and economic reforms, exorcised the Red bogey, almost earned title to "Thunderer on the Left...
...Done. Besides the conviction that danger to the U.S. is real, one thing that will help to restore Army morale is more equipment. Another thing is better officers.

The Church's idea is, of course, Christ, but beyond that it seems...

Presumably there were many details left to work out. But the consensus of rumor held that: > The line of demarcation between Occupied and Unoccupied France would be opened for the passage of goods, money, mail. > The French daily payment of 400,000,000 francs for maintaining Germany's occupying Army would be cut as much as 25%. > Some 250,000 of the 1,800,000 French war prisoners in Germany would be sent home...
