Third World Countries Hamper Coverage by Outside Reporters
NEW YORK — Foreign
correspondents are having
an increasingly harder time
on assignments to Third
World countries than ever
before.
According to Henry
Kamm in The New York
Times, many of the third
world nationals are grad-
ually joining the Commun-
ist nations in closing them-
selves off from critical
inquiry. These nations are
generally suspicious toward
correspondents and invoke

both formal and informal
methods of denying foreign
correspondents access to
information and highly-
placed individuals.
The formal method, ac-
cording to Kamm, consists
in refusal of entry visas,
censorship and the ban-
ning of correspondents
from parts of the country.
The informal method is to
make the journalist's work
difficult by denying him
access to sources of infor-
mation.
Kamm attributes the den-
ial of information to the
governments of Third World
countries. He stated:
"Because much of the
Third World is given to one-
party or even one-man gov-
ernment, in which the na-
tional press is controlled by
the government, the foreign
press has often been an im-
portant channel of expres-
sion for critical sentiment
within the country.

dent countries mature, and

man Solomon's "Two Lives,
Two Lands."
Published by G. P. Put-
nam's Sons, "Two Lives,
Two Lands" is the final por-
tion of her trilogy tracing
the lives and destinies of the
descendants of the Pirov
and von Glasman families.
Part I of the triology is "The
Candlesticks and the Cross"
followed by "The Eagle and
the Dove."
The book focuses mainly,
on Ronya von Glasman Pi-
rov Zotov, a descendant of
the wealthy von Glasman
dynasty, who - escapes from
pre-revolutionary Russia.
Ronya, through her hus-
band, Paul Zotov, and sons
Igor and Georgi by her first
husband, Boris, and their
half-brother Boris — the
Blond One — conspire to
rescue the remaining family
members trapped in Russia,
while helping to rid pre-
state Israel of the Turks to
make way for a Jewish
homeland.
Member by member, the
von Glasman-Pirov clan
makes its way out of East
Europe, but for Igor's
fragile wife, Julie and
their daughter, Rachel,
the trip is teacherous, and
little Rachel must disguise
her Jewish identity by car-
rying a cross.
The book is noteworthy
for its historical value as
well for the anthropological.
In its different locales the
reader is exposed to Gypsy
mysticism, since Ronya's
first husband was a descen-
dant of the Tartar Gypsies,
and to the mystery of the
Middle East. Without being
vulgar, the book refers to
the obscenities of war and
battle, just enough to make
the reader aware of the
world tension in which the
the trilogy, "Two Lives, Two
Lands," may be confusing
and it is advisable to keep a
genealogy chart of the char-
acters at hand until well
into the book.
Mrs. Solomon's ,"Two
Lives, Two Lands" is a novel
of anguish-and passions cou-
pled with a motif of freedom
which makes the novel a
timely and worthwhile work
for students of history and
the casual reader.
