TOP OF THE WEEK:
COVER: "Frances Fading Hero" -- CHARLES DE GAULLE'S SUMMER OF DISCONTENT. Ever since Charles de Gaulle's recent outburst in Canada, even his oldest admirers have begun to wonder if the French President, at 76, was losing his grip on reality. This week Newsweek scans the general's record, surveys his country and searches de Gaulle himself for telltale signs of age. The conclusion: though his authority is beginning to erode, de Gaulle is still far from senile. For the story, Paris bureau chief Joel Blocker provided an in-depth appraisal of de Gaulle's personality and philosophy, Alan Tillier charted France's economic troubles and political maneuvering and Elizabeth Peer reported on de Gaulle's personal routine. From these files and reports from other capitals, Associate Editor Kenneth Auchincloss wrote this week's searching profile of France's fading hero. (Cover photo by Eddy Van Der Veen--Black Star.).
RX FOR A LONG, HOT SUMMER: A LONG, COOL MAYOR: Throughout last summer and most of this one there has been no major racial flare-up in the nation's largest Negro ghetto, Harlem. One reason is the lanky, shirt-sleeved figure of New York's Mayor John Lindsay, loping along the ghetto streets, stopping to chat, shake hands, hear complaints. Reporter Jayne Brumley fell in step alongside Lindsay on one of his recent walks, and from her account Associate Editor Jacquin Sanders wrote the story.
INDONESIA: RACE AGAINST TIME: What has happened in Indonesia since Sukarno was forced out of power? To find out, Newsweek's Maynard Parker visited the archipelago republic. His conclusion: the "New Order" of General Suharto has checked but not reversed economic and sociEl decline. Suharto is sincerely trying to get Indonesia going again, but with student discontent rising he does not have much time.
HOW TO CURE THE SLUMS?: Better housing, say the frustrated inmates of the ghettos, is their single most pressing need. The kind of Federal money needed to eliminate all slum housing is nowhere in sight, but government and industry are making vastly more effective use of the funds that are on hand. From reports by Murray Seeger in Washington, Susan Boyer in New York and correspondents in other cities, Associate Editor Rich Thomas describes the new attack on slums.
