...conference in Rio de Janeiro last week, the most impressive figure was a towering (6 ft. 3 in.), hard-muscled Chinese-59-year-old Roman Catholic Archbishop Paul Yu-pin of Nanking. Equally impressive was the report he gave of his church's growth in Formosa: during the past ten years, the island's Catholic population has grown from 5,000 to more than 200,000; its priesthood from...
Time to Think. Yet in the past few years, a certain reaction has set in. When critics cried "frills" at murals and mosaics ("Must schools be palaces?" wrote Dorothy Thompson in 1957). school boards began to listen. New designs often emphasize the penny-pinching Spartanism that pioneering architects borrowed from industrial buildings.

Despite the slump, automakers cranked up production on 1961 models earlier than usual, allowed a much shorter shutdown period for dealers to clean up 1960 models. Last week the industry's output was 36% higher than the week before and nearly triple the production of the same period last year. Either sales will have to pick up or production will have to be cut down...
