Seaborne Uncles. The U.S. labored to arrange a nonviolent transition. On the Dominican side, several members of the wealthy Trujillo family-but not Son-and-Heir Ramfis-were to go into exile. Police brutality would be curbed (though Castroite political groups would continue to be suppressed). Large chunks of the Trujillo family's land and industrial empire would be turned over to the nation.

Last week, claiming what apparently is an ex-husband's privilege in the Riviera set, Onassis leaked the news that Tina and "Sonny" Blandford, himself a veteran of a previous marriage, would be wed in Paris within...
