Respite: in the Middle East, you can enjoy the political breathing space. American transport aircraft have built over secret airlines an air bridge which supplied gasoline to the Kingdom of Jordan.
In Amman, the British soldiers have obtained their positions. Due to the presence of foreign forces, the immediate risk for the Haschemitenthron of King Hussein is banned at least at the moment. In addition all on the upcoming summit is waiting.

Ovation: the pan Arab nationalism in Cairo is manifested in a mass rally. With sharp words, President Abdel Nasser turned against the British attack in Jordan.

Middle East course: at the London House of Lancaster, the Conference of the Baghdad Pact countries was opened in the absence of Iraq. The willingness of the United States, to join the military alliance, the American Secretary of State John Foster Dulles makes a political linchpin.

The discussion revealed a total agreement on all political issues with Chancellor Adenauer.

Concessions: In Moscow, Prime Minister Chruschtschow received an Austrian governmental delegation headed by Federal Chancellor Raab. The Austrians negotiated with the Kremlin over a crucial relief of transfer shipments to the Soviet Union. The result meant our Viennese colleague: - original sound - "the discussions last not long. They last less than an hour. Then the Austrians have achieved everything they wanted. We're lucky with Moscow."

Police approved topic was the initiative of the United States in the Lebanon. Illusions: And in Brussels will be a lone visionary with the idea to bless mankind. The American Homer Tomlinson became the "King of the world".

World in the image of Japan: for weeks, Japan suffers from a relentless heatwave. The long-awaited rainy season should be the salvation for town and country. But Tokyo without water was suddenly.

Well, and then we tried original sound – to get the magician with the camera behind the tricks. And if you now pay close attention to the hands, then discover... just as little as we.
To evoke no difficulties with the animal protection Association, we ask all amateurs, not to copy the trick with the Dove. It's not only with SIM Sala BIM.

It was at the international motor boat regatta on the deck Steiner Lake captains of the Nutshells "Grand Prix of Cologne". At the start, there were boats of different classes.
Some brave captain had to experience how his boat alone went to the victory. The stronger engine governed perhaps on the straight stretch, in the hairpin but it is solely on the skill of the driver, to get the edge. After a dramatic race, Rolf Goetze took out 800 points, and won the "Grand Prix of Cologne".
