...home. First Khrushchev and Mikoyan went to Red China to insure Mao's friendship with promises of new industrial supplies. Then they ate crow at the lean table of the renegade Tito, where Nikita stayed drunk most of the time. After that came the parley at the summit, which they bought into cheaply by freeing Austria. But for all the sweet talk at Geneva, the Russians were unwilling (or felt no need) to make any real end to the cold war in Europe, or agree to any solution of the big problem, which was Germany. B. and K. went...
These are words which many an impulsive householder off on vacation has lived to regret. Ever since Sir Anthony Eden, in the rosy aftermath of the Summit Conference at Geneva last July, issued such an invitation to Soviet Bigwigs Khrushchev and Bulganin, the chill British air has been filled with regrets and forebodings. A powerful faction in the Tory Party, led by Lord Salisbury, Eden's own longtime guide and mentor, was against the idea almost from the beginning.

Fellow golfers say he could trim strokes off his score if he would only quit experimenting with new theories on how to improve his game...
Last week Egypt's Premier Gamal Abdel Nasser completed a little "parley at the summit" with his fellow Arabs of Syria and Saudi Arabia. Their announced achievements were few, but they underlined Nasser's aspiration to establish Egypt as the leader of a united Araby and even, if possible, over all Africa. His undeclared aim: to force the West out of the whole area. Nasser's radio, "Voice of the Arabs," reaches from Morocco to Iran, from Cyprus to Portuguese Mozambique, preaching subversion, rebellion, intransigence and hatred of "imperialists." In Cairo he has gathered together a kind...
