"I am, to be the America's oldest allies in this country". That was the response of President Nixon on the unexpectedly warm welcome in the Seine metropolis. The meeting with de Gaulle so my diplomatic observers - was the most important stage of his trip to Europe for the US President. The result: France and America are closer politically.
For the first time in the history of Rome, a helicopter dropped off a statesman on St. Peter's square. The Vatican was the last stop on the trip to Europe of the new U.S. President. This time, Italy showed a friendly face. The bloody anti-US demonstrations of the day before were forgotten. Nixon and Pope Paul VI spoke two hours. It was the end of the journey, before Nixon had said: "I will listen and learn, to get to a better cooperation with Europe". Mistral is the train which is to lure French travelers vacationers from the car-clogged streets. as with the Mistral travel will be fun again. The train of tomorrow - as the French call it - offers its users today every imaginable comfort.

A card memory contains all information necessary for the administration of 420,000 West vehicles. The computer of the Siemens system can register data of nearly one million vehicles.
The card with the information access - triggered by a push of a button - in the data memory of the system. Where they are available.
Within about 15 seconds, the computer screen can give all stored information about a vehicle and its holder. Err is no longer human.
Paris has rediscovered the feminine type. Clay sporting charm, cool chic and of seductive femininity should primarily be the woman of summer of 69.
Baimain, the old master among the Couturiers of the Seine, prefers the romantic line. He calls "Little" one of his most original models, a combination of dress and Cape.
The Cape dominated, even when the dress to play. It protects from sunburn and too hot looks.
