Challenge of leadership faces America in Europe
A lingering leadership challenge tests the United States as Europe rebuilds after war. NATO cohesion faces pressure from De Gaulle's push for European independence and a French no from NATO naval forces, while Americans once contemplated an all Europe defense system. The drift could reshape Atlantic alliance and US influence.

Union a partnership idea in federal state relations
A discussion on states rights versus centralized government stresses the need for heat over light. Historical attempts by Eisenhower era commissions failed to transfer functions to states, and Collins proposes annual federal state conferences to better define needs and roles. The core message: the Union should be a partnership, not a rivalry, with mutual aid to perform proper duties.

The Thin Red Line in Spain Stirs ACExhibit Hopes
Hollywood writer Bob Thomas notes two spring films shot in Spain. The Thin Red Line, backed by the American Congress of Exhibitors, mixes Freudian war drama with Keir Dullea and Jack Warden.

Don’t outlaw in laws Ruth Wallett
Ruth Wallett argues the in law issue is serious not humorous. A wife should welcome her husband’s relatives and avoid guilting him into neglecting his own family. The only fair approach is mutual hospitality, with each spouse treating the other’s relatives with the same courtesy.
