Henry Grunwald used to edit Time, until moved up in the Time-Life hierarchy. I do not know if he is retired or dead, at this point, but the family surely continues to have ties to the magazine......

There was a ferocious battle to get Whor-aldo into #1. Don't know how it ended up.

Funny, but Time left many conservative names like Limbaugh on that list.

Now, China gets uranium
Clinton approves transfer that could
help Beijing's weapons production

The Clinton administration has approved the shipment to Communist China of uranium U-235 -- the nuclear isotope used in the atomic bomb that was exploded over Hiroshima in 1945.
According to official statements from the Department of Energy and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, a public notice for the approval was published in the Federal Register Oct. 15. NRC spokesman Ron Hauber confirmed that the NRC approved the transfer after being "consulted" by the Department of Energy.

"This is a transfer of American U-235 previously sold to Germany," stated Hauber. "The Germans consulted with the Department of Energy and the NRC through EURATOM, the European atomic energy agency. The Germans requested permission to sell the U-235 to China. The NRC approved with no objection, but the actual transfer and oversight is the responsibility of the Department of Energy."

According to the public notice, the Department of Energy proposed the uranium be transferred as part of a "'subsequent arrangement' under the Agreement for Cooperation in the Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy Between the United States of America and the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM)."
