From 1955, the West German Bundesmarine was allowed to have a small navy. Initially two sunken Type XXIIIs and a Type XXI were raised and repaired. In the 1960s, West Germany re-entered the submarine business. Because Germany was initially restricted to a 450 tonne displacement limit, the Bundesmarine focused on small coastal submarines to protect against the Soviet threat in the Baltic Sea. The Germans sought to use advanced technologies to offset the small displacement, such as amagnetic

Although frequency analysis is a powerful and general technique
against many ciphers, encryption has still been often effective in
practice; many a would-be cryptanalyst was unaware of the technique.
Breaking a message without using frequency analysis essentially
required knowledge of the cipher used and perhaps of the key involved,
thus making espionage, bribery, burglary, defection, etc. more
attractive approaches to the cryptanalyticly uninformed. It was finally

His wife had the good sense to divorce him after he spent
three years in jail. In 1958, he was released on parole. This time
Manson took up a new occupation — pimping. He supplemented this income
by getting money from an unattractive wealthy girl in Pasadena. In
1959, Manson was arrested on two federal charges: stealing a check from
a mailbox and attempting to cash a U.S. Treasury check for $37.50 This
time Manson was lucky, a young woman pretended she was pregnant and

she died. As heiress to the Folger coffee fortune, she had led a very
comfortable life. She made her debut in San Francisco in 1961. She
graduated from Radcliffe. Like many wealthy girls, she looked for
something meaningful to do with her time and became very involved in
social work.  Victims Folger and Frykowski

On September 26, Lucinda Boddy, a cook in a home near the
university, went up the street to the home of attorney Major W. D.
Dunham, where her friend, Gracie Vance, worked. Gracie lived in a
servant's cabin behind the house with her common-law husband, Orange
Washington. Saylor describes Lucinda as being ill and in need of care,
so she had gone to stay with Gracie to heal. That day passed
uneventfully, but by evening, Gracie and Orange had an argument over

n the late 1800s, the state of Texas was a wide open frontier with
thousands of acres of unsettled land. The Indian wars and feuds with
Mexico were all but forgotten, as most were looking ahead to the
future. One of those looking ahead was Joe Balls father Frank. Around
1885, Frank Ball moved to Elemendorf, Texas, a small town 15 miles
southeast of San Antonio, Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire which had recently been founded by a man
named Henry Elmendorf, who

Michael Ostrog is the last and least plausible of Sir Melville
Macnaghten's three suspects. He was a thief and confidence man who used
many aliases. He often represented himself as an impoverished Polish
nobleman. He spent a good amount of his life in jail, but he was
completely unrepentant. In 1874, after Ostrog was convicted of stealing
a dozen books, the Buckinghamshire Advertiser summed him up:Ostrog
is no ordinary offender, but a man in the prime of life with a clever
head, a good

A long convoy
of automobiles sits idle along the winding driveway beside the plot of
graves in a shaded cemetery. From the hearse, in front of the convoy,
six dark-suited pallbearers lift a platinum coffin and, somberly, carry
it to a gurney waiting beside a newly dug place of interment. Mourners,
leaving the confines of their cars, whose windows have been tagged with
a purple sticker identifying them as a funeral procession, follow |

I arrived too late to hear him, and only heard some furious remarks

matter. Lubliner published an article about it in the — Émancipation. [L'Émancipation, 7 March 1848]

TALENT
without flexibility was a dangerous thing in the Soviet Union, as
thousands found to their cost. Sergei Mikhalkov had talent aplenty, as
a poet, playwright, children’s writer and satirist. But, more
important, he was flexible.
Mr Mikhalkov
penned the words to two versions of the Soviet national anthem, one
glorifying Stalin and one ignoring him. After Russia shrugged off
communism he wrote a third version, to the same tune. In between he
denounced two of the country’s |

MOSCOW — Sergei V. Mikhalkov, a Russian

of the Soviet literary hierarchy, eventually writing the lyrics to the
Soviet and Russian national anthems, died in Moscow on Thursday at the

“Demands of the Communist
Party in Germany” were written by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels in
Paris between March 21 (when Engels arrived in Paris from Brussels) and
March 24, 1848. This document was discussed by members of the Central
Authority, who approved and signed it as the. political programme of
the Communist League in the revolution that broke out in Germany. In
March it was printed as a leaflet, for distribution among revolutionary
