...relatives Arbenz will doubtless see in Switzerland is his father's well-to-do brother Ernst Arbenz, and Ernst may talk to him like a Swiss uncle. A blind cheesemaker of Alstatten ("One doesn't have to be able to see to put the holes in cheese"), Ernst told reporters last week that he had written his nephew a letter of advice a few months before the President fell from power. "I told him he should shake off his Communist advisers," Ernst recalled. "But either he got annoyed or his Communist friends intercepted the letter, because neither...

There is nothing in the Bible to support the view that religion is necessarily a good thing. On the contrary, it is suspicious of much that passes for religion...

And while Cubans doubtless remember the treasury looting that went on under Grau, they may also remember that they were freer and more prosperous in those days; moreover, they have a cranky habit of turning against strongmen-even good ones. Last week, as a possible precaution against such nostalgic ingratitude, the Batista-controlled supreme electoral court forbade newspapers and radio stations to use election results from any source but the court's own official bulletins.
