The piece weighs Canada’s wage and price controls under Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau against U S policy debates. It notes inflation and unemployment, Trudeau’s three year controls, potential future extensions, and mixed domestic reaction from business and labor. It also references economist John Kenneth Galbraith and US political implications ahead of the 1976 election cycle. A local Shaftsbury town notice advocates relocating offices to Cole Hall for better space and historic preservation.
The article reviews the steam locomotive era from Baldwin’s 1830s start to the diesel shift, noting the 440 American type, valve design, and power strokes. It discusses notable locomotives Hiland Hall and Old Ironsides, and mentions manufacturers including Baldwin, Mason, Schenectady, and Vermont’s A Latham. It ends by recalling bicentennial trains arriving this summer and fall.
Heads of State in Africa weigh recognizing MPLA, FNLA, or UNITA as Angola’s government as Congress eyes a cutoff on covert aid. The decision could set precedents for U.S. foreign policy, CIA activity, and ties with South Africa, while Angola’s tribal politics and resource wealth shape regional reactions. The three groups differ in origins, support networks, and geographic bases, with MPLA backed by the Soviets, FNLA receiving Western and Asian support, and UNITA aligned with Savimbi’s urban-rural base.
