...world electronics market will be hitched to the inward-looking Europe so dear to Charles de Gaulle. Fighting hard to prevent this, RCA has sent a mobile color TV studio rolling into Britain, Finland, Sweden, France, Germany and Russia.

...code extends beyond Black Muslims--deep into the Negro community. It is a set of rules which designates the political and religious leaders of the community and defines the loyalty and respect which individuals owe to these leaders. The "code" allows Adam Clayton Powell (D.N.Y.) and William Dawson (D-III.) to be re-elected year after year and keeps Negro ministers in their pulpits until they are carried to the funeral parlor...

Second Time Around. Whatever price Labor finally fixes-provided it can get the nationalization bill passed -will likely owe as much to politics as to a realistic appraisal of Britain's steel industry. Britain has the world's fifth-largest steel industry, after the U.S., Russia, West Germany and Japan. The industry's 260 companies, employing more than 300,000 workers, last year poured a record 26 million tons of steel, 88% of capacity but only 6% of global steel output. In 1951, most of the companies were nationalized by Labor-and two years later were returned...
