The mayors of all the cities in the east are meeting to discuss the possibility of food riots. Pan American has been bought by Iran. A banker's wife has been kidnapped.

The governor of Montana is ordered to jail for illegal campaign funding, In Belfast they are still killing each other. The Egyptians are shopping for two million dollars worth of war material. The world is a mess. The moral of this column? I don't know. I think that maybe it's that an Ida-Susan-joan should never kiss a Paul Henreid under a tree, Or that middle class worms shouldn't mingle with aris- tocratic worms, much less fight with them. Somehosv, though, I think the moral Is that somebody has been shafting us all these years, No, I don't think it's Hollywood, It sure as heck couldn't be Ida-Susan-joan or Paul Henreid. I wonder who it could be.
