COVER: Who Controls the Air? Reagan's Tough Line.
Cover: Photo by Ted Russell.
TOP OF THE WEEK:
WHO CONTROLS THE AIR? Ronald Reagan met his first Presidential crisis last week: a strike by 12,000 air controllers, testing the integrity of his economic program--and the patience, convenience and safety of the flying public. His tough stand won public approval, a NEWSWEEK Poll showed, and the air-traffic system muddled through on a reduced schedule. In its cover package, NEWSWEEK details the week's events and the tactics behind them, explains what controllers do, examines the growing militancy of the whole Federal work force and profiles Transportation crisis manager Drew Lewis.
PESTICIDES' GLOBAL FALLOUT: In America, the sale of deadly pesticides is tightly regulated. But manufacturers continue to sell toxic chemicals to the Third World, where environmental laws are few--and where even doctors are often unaware of the potential dangers. That double standard not only threatens human and environmental health in developing countries, but can come back to haunt the industrialized world in the form of food imports contaminated by the very poisons that have been banned at home.
END OF A BITTER BATTLE: At last, the biggest bidding war in corporate story has ended. Last week chemical giant Dupont won its battle to buy Conoco, the nation's ninth largest oil company, for an offer worth .5 billion--more than twice the previous record price for an acquisition. One of the losers, Seagram, won a chunk of Conoco stock--and perhaps significant leverage over Du Pont. The other, mighty Mobil Corp., emerged from the fray defeated and embarrassed.
AMERICA'S SALZBURG: Every summer, Santa Fe, N.M., becomes a cultural boom town, with art shows, chamber music, concerts and a burst of grand opera staged by the first-rate Santa Fe Opera. To celebrate its 25th season, SF0 has mounted three productions of the sort of thing it's famous for--unusual operas by twentieth-century composers.
ART OF L.A. Los Angeles, with its man-made glitter and beautiful natural light, is the muse of many California artists who currently are being celebrated at the Los Angeles County Muse- um of Art.
