...Communists, rightists, disgruntled officers. The most surprising suspect was Colonel El-fego Monzón, who as army chief negotiated the peace with Castillo Armas after Arbenz stepped down. Monzón at first served on a governing junta with Castillo Armas, then drifted into the background, his loyalties unclear. His involvement in last week's dustup consisted mainly of his friendship with several of the plotters. Not quite willing to jail his old comrade Monzón on such a flimsy accusation, Castillo Armas neutralized him in quite another way: he sent officers, who hustled the colonel...

It is to warn that feeble top leadership can lead even the most...

The owners of the world's newest, biggest jute mill at Narayanganj, East Pakistan, pampered their imported West Pakistan workers, gave them better jobs and a higher wage scale than the East Pakistan Bengalis. On payday, when the West Paks were lording it over the Bengalis, the atmosphere was tense. According to one version, a West Pakistani fireman reproved a Bengali teastall keeper for allowing the flames to burn too high in his oven. The Bengali took offense, and when a factory watchman intervened, another Bengali stabbed the watchman...
