...incident on which the novel is based occurred in 1942, when the fearful U.S. was so busy remembering the threats and wrongs of Pearl Harbor that it busily forgot the rights of many Americans of Japanese descent. They were cruelly uprooted from their homes and arbitrarily herded together in relocation camps. In a shameful, repple-depple kind of limbo families were sundered and gentle spirits destroyed...
...much farther can it decline? The long slide is one sign that inflationary psychology is finally being broken-or at least dented. Most analysts agree that the market is oversold. Mutual funds harbor some $4.6 billion-or nearly 9% of their assets-in cash and 30-to-90-day Treasury bills. Brokerage houses hold about $6 billion in uncommitted margin money. That potential purchasing power could provide a lift to the market, but investors are awaiting signs of a loosening of credit. The signs may be a long time coming. Last week Thomas O.

A tug towed the 12-ton papyrus craft out of the harbor at Safi, Morocco, and then cast off, leaving Thor Heyerdahl and his crew to sail their weird wicker boat 4,000 miles across the Atlantic to Central America.

After four days, Heyerdahl radioed that Ra was 133 miles along the predicted track, riding a strong current and floating well-quieting...
...another, more innocent day, God and country seemed to be solid and comfortable partners. To most of the nation, the second World War was a just cause, and when a chaplain at Pearl Harbor urged a Navy gun crew to "praise the Lord and pass the ammunition," it seemed appropriate that the slogan be turned into a popular song. But Viet Nam is a different kind of war, and clerical critics-including a few ex-chaplains -are beginning to question whether a minister in uniform can really be honest to God while remaining faithful to the Pentagon. This month several...
