I need to take only four names and you will agree with me that prophecies in particular are difficult, I call these four names: the Congo, Cuba, Algiers, and Berlin. And I would add that controlled disarmament efforts have been so far no further. But despite the difficulties, despite the dangers, I'm convinced the year 1961 will bring us no profound shocks in the world if only the free peoples agreed and firmly hold together. I know that the year 1961 for us will bring all work and worry. I also know that we will escape all dangers if we work, if we are smart and reliable. The power of the free peoples together is significantly greater than the power of those who harass the free peoples. The freedom, the peace in freedom, the strongest factors of our epoch."

The disaster of fog, snow and icy roads meant that the last weekend before Christmas became a weekend of disasters. The railways could no longer meet their schedules, shipping traffic was hampered and on country roads, the accidents piled up.
A heavy Blizzard, clear New York City's streets covered with snow, was the direct cause of the worst disaster in the history of civil aviation.
A modern jet airliner with a four-engine Superconstellation crashed through the Borough of Brooklyn. The jet aircraft burst in the air, the debris fell in the middle of the town and set several houses on fire.
Of the passengers of the two aircraft any more could be recovered alive. The disaster killed 142 people.
The misty Tower of Munich St. Paul's Church, a 2-engined American military machine was undoing a day later. The aircraft, which should bring students to England, crashed on a fast busy main road. Several thousand liters of gasoline caught fire, the passengers of a crowded tram trailer were helplessly exposed.
Fire and American police forces were just a few minutes after the crash of the plane at the scene of the accident. For over 50 people, but all the help came too late. The disasters in New York and Munich raise the question again, whether the air road in our modern age are sufficiently secured. The air transport network about us is daily close. The life of the passengers required new security measures could be achieved with a minimum of means, which now serve the conquest of space.

The current Chronicle Addis Abeba: Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, which celebrated its 30th anniversary this year, was a showdown against rebels in his capital. As strict as pious ruler from Addis Abeba during your stay in Brazil should be dethroned by his own Palace Guard. With the help of his loyal army, the Emperor managed to put down the rebellion. In the streets of the Ethiopian capital, there were over a thousand dead so far present messages. The person of Crown Prince ASFA Wossen, the accused to have coup, against his own father remains remains mysterious. After the abortive Palace revolt in the fairytale-like Marco, Haile Selassie is the situation again.

Brussels: A Rapture unparalleled seized these days of all the Belgian people. Baudouin, King of the Belgians, and Doña Fabiola de Mora y Aragón steps after the civil wedding ceremony to the altar of the Church of St. Gudula.
Princes and princesses, and almost the entire aristocracy of Europe gave a splendid rendezvous as the Belgian monarch exchanged the rings to the Federal Government for life with his Spanish bride. Endless cheers accompanied the young Royal couple also on the way back through the town. After 25 years, the country has a Queen once again.

Sportswoman of the year was the Dresden upper school student Ingrid Krämer, and sportsman of the year, they told journalist Georg Thoma from hinterzarten, the winner of the Nordic combined in Squaw Valley. Parliamentary compensation sports the sportsmen of the year we can count those athletes, looking for the balance training for their gut-wrenching work in the Parliament in the Sports School of the Bundestag. A number of Bundestag deputies to a sports community has gathered to keep physically fit. Under direction of Peter Müller, members strive for the arts, also in the boxing ring with beating arguments to convince. -Most prominent participants of these sports community is Federal Minister Lemmer, which gained the physical balance and the necessary relaxation here.

A statesman gives information in Rhöndorf Chancellor Adenauer gave us an interview at the end of the year. "If a year nears the end and the new year rolls in, is probably a look back and a look into the future out of place. The year 1960 brought us Germans in the Federal Republic no particular setbacks or even disasters. Political life but was as part known to us where for years now. The economic life made further progress. It is gratifying that a desire of large sections, pointing to a greater extent than previously after mental development intellectual progress in particular sense in our youth."
On the foreign policy situation, Dr. Adenauer said: "what will bring the year 1961 us and the free world, is hard to predict in detail. I need to call only four names and you will agree with me, that prophecies in particular are hardly possible. I call these four names: the Congo, Cuba, Algiers, and Berlin, and I still add that efforts to the controlled disarmament has not so far have progressed. But despite the difficulties, despite the dangers, I'm convinced the year 1961 will bring us no deep shocks in the world if only the free peoples agreed and firmly hold together. I know that the year 1961 for us will bring all the work and worry, but I know that we will escape all dangers if we work, if we are smart and reliable. The power of the free peoples together is significantly greater than the power of those who harass the free peoples. The freedom, the peace in freedom, the strongest factors of our epoch."
