...another 10,000 British Enfield rifles labeled as "hunting rifles," which were shipped from Antwerp. In Italy, they bought some $2,500,000 worth of armaments, including four of Italy's excellent new 105-mm. howitzers with a range of 6.2 miles. A later deal for three LST-type landing ships was blocked by U.S. pressure. But clandestine shipments continue through Naples of arms from other nations-labeled "motors" and "used parts." As late as three weeks ago, a Greek Line freighter left Naples with Cuban-bought arms falsely manifested to Haiti...

...barren stretch of coast at Humboldt Bay, 225 miles north of San Fran cisco, surveying teams this week went to work on the foundations of a radically new type of nuclear power plant for California's giant Pacific Gas & Electric Co. The reactor will be underground, thus eliminating the need for the expensive protective dome; it will incorporate new advances in design to produce more steam, thus increasing capacity. By 1964, when the second fuel core has been phased in, the reactor's generating capacity will reach about 60,000 kw. When it does, the plant is expected...
...Sigmund Freud. He himself said, "I stand for an infinitely freer sexual life, although I myself have made very little use of such freedom." He wanted to be a lawgiver, but he became a mythmaker. He wanted to be a scientist, but he was more nearly an artist-a type that he described as "a being of a special kind, exalted, autocratic . . . and at times rather incomprehensible...
