- <p> THE REACH-OUT ALBANIA PLAN. Paranoid, reclusive Albania is
- beginning to reach out and touch someone. The nation opened
- telephone links with 54 Western countries earlier this year,
- and this month a direct U.S.-Albania link is being inaugurated
- by AT&T. This week the National Assembly begins meeting to
- consider a number of--for Albania--revolutionary proposals.
- Among them: reinstituting the Ministry of Justice, which was
- abolished in the '60s on the pretext that it was no longer
- needed, and the right of the accused to have a defense lawyer.
