Feb. 28 was definitely a bad day for JOHN ARBOGAST, a State Department lawyer who specializes in U.N. affairs. Running late, he stuffed a bunch of papers into one of his three bags and hurried to his car. Then he drove off, leaving the bags on the car roof, with predictable results. RONALD T. NELSON, a passing motorist, found Arbogast's briefcase, which held personal items. But Nelson tells TIME that when he returned it, Arbogast said that papers in the ...

"We aren't heading for a revolution in our country, we are already in the midst of one," says the stern, silver-haired churchman as he glances at the acacias and bougainvilleas blooming outside the window of his study. "And by that I mean it's a revolution of ideas, a revolution of our system of values. We are forced -- even if we don't like it -- we are simply forced to join hands and to share power. We can't go on ...

Between the Roy* and the Viceroy there is this difference: The Earl of Willingdon on his throne at Delhi can initiate action, decree the most drastic measures—in short, can rule. Last week the return to India of Mahatma Gandhi gave the Viceroy a chance to seem every inch a king. When Mr. Gandhi begged audience by telegram to discuss Lord Willingdon's recent ordinance suppressing free speech, freedom of assembly and virtually all civil rights in Bengal , he received from the Viceregal ...

The Night of the Hunter . Davis Grubb's tense 1954 novel about an itinerant psychopathic preacher is a natural for cinemelo-drama. Directed by Actor Charles Laughton, it is a garish, unbelievable but fairly exciting nightmare. Robert Mitchum, the preacher, knows that somewhere around the small Ohio River valley house of Widow Shelley Winters he will find a $10,000 cache. Numskull Shelley, who does not believe the money is there, falls for Mitchum's hell fire because she thinks she will find ...

Electroplating stout metals with aluminum was described at the Chicago Institute of the American Chemical Society last week. If the process should become practicable commercially, housewifery and industry will benefit by inestimable billions. Pots, pans, vats, machines exposed to corrosives will be protected by a skin of aluminum, metal highly resistant to mos.t acids and alkalies.Professor Donald Babcock Keyes of the University of Illinois told the chemists at Chicago that the process is practicable. He invented it, although other scientists academic and industrial have worked on the problem ...

Although 14 American states—and most Western nations—have substantially abolished the death penalty, the Supreme Court has thus far declined to rule on its constitutionality. Last fall the court agreed to review the conviction of William Maxwell, 30, an Arkansas Negro sentenced to death in 1962 for the rape of a white woman.
