...nation has more to lose or gain at Caracas than the U.S. It has the world's longest coastline (counting the Aleutian, Hawaiian and Micronesian archipelagoes), the mightiest Navy, the most extensive investment in offshore oil and mining. The rather liberal U.S. oceans policy was the product of a long, twisting tug of war between a number of personalities and interests...

Among the shows planned for the fall are NBC's series based on Carl Sandburg's biography of Lincoln, and another by the Public Broadcasting System on the Adams family from 1750 to 1900. CBS, however, has decided to go to extremes with the longest-running, shortest commemorative of them all. Beginning on July 4, it will offer a prime-time TV series called Bicentennial Minutes, which will run every night of every week until B-day, July 4, 1976. Each segment is exactly one minute long...
