Trujillo's turnabout was a nose-thumbing answer to the U.S. Government and the Roman Catholic Church, which have been pressing him to democratize his regime (TIME, Feb. 15 et seq.). In effect, Trujillo said to each: If it is democracy you want, let us start by restoring the rights of a group you dislike...
...widespread, nonviolent protest the likes of which the U.S. had never seen. In the eleven weeks since four young Negro college students staged the first sitdown demonstration against segregation at the lunch counter of a Woolworth five-and-dime store in Greensboro, N.C. (TIME, Feb. 22 et seq.), the lunch-counter movement had spread through the moderate border states and the diehard Deep South like a dry-summer forest fire in a stiff breeze...
...demurral. Said Biologies Standards' Dr. Roderick Murray: "No company has yet filed a complete application with all the required data." What he meant was that the Government, once burned when hasty licensing of Salk vaccine producers was followed by the disastrous Cutter incident (TIME, May 9 1955 et seq.}, is now twice shy about licensing an oral vaccine.

But in last month's election, his party's reliance on ballot stuffing and terrorism (TIME, March 21 et seq.) took on unprecedented proportions. Masan has long been a stronghold of opposition to Rhee's Liberals. In 1956 the people of Masan gave Rhee only half as many votes as Progressive Party Candidate Cho Bong Am (later hanged by Rhee's police for treason). Masan's voters flatly...
