The Statue of Liberty. Portraits of Miss Liberty and her Birthday Bash. TOM WOLFE on our Magical mystery Lady. Cover: Photo by Rich Friedman--Black Star. TOP OF THE WEEK [Major Top Stories]: THE BLESSINGS OF LIBERTY: The city has walls that stretch," said New York Mayor Ed Koch last week in what turned out to be an uncharacteristic understatement. The city stretched not only its walls but also its patience to put out a welcome mat for a glorious Fourth of July holiday. As the nation watched on television, New Yorkers and a multitude of out-of-town guests jammed vantage points from the Battery to the Hudson Palisades for a spectacular celebration of the Statue of Liberty's centennial. Every detail--from the awe-inspiring parade of tall ships coasting up the Hudson River to the glitzy parties and festivity-choked streets to the bombs-bursting-in-air fireworks--left etched in the minds of millions of Americans a rotogravure of charm and grace. Best of all, for the thousands involved in its planning, Liberty Weekend was unmarred by terrorism, bad temper or bad weather. But as New York played host for the national party--and Americans everywhere toasted their country--there were also solemn thoughts: are today's immigrants finding less welcome and less opportunity in the United States? Does the Golden Door discriminate? And what, exactly, are we so proud to celebrate? NEWSWEEK reporters and photographers were joined by author TOM WOLFE in watching the United States rediscover roots grounded in the soil at Ellis Island. National Affairs: Page 18. SODOMY: NO: the supreme court last week allowed the law into the bedrooms of gays. By a vote of 5 to 4, the high court upheld a georgia law barring anal and oral sex--and in the process ended a long expansion of the constitutional right to privacy. The decision also has implications for the status of gays in american society. National affairs: page 36. DEVIL'S SWAP?: in exchange for using $3 billion of pesticides each year, u.s. Farmers reap $12 billion in crops that would otherwise be lost to weeds and insects. But pesticides can kill--and the dangers are now so grave that the environmental protection agency has catapulted them to the top of its list of problem pollutants. Society: page 72. DESKTOP GURUS': desktop-publishing software packages now allow individuals to turn out resumes, pamphlets, ad copy and even books that have the look of professional typesetting. Desktop publishing is saving corporations millions of dollars. It has become one of the most popular uses for personal computers and may give computer makers a significant boost in sales. Entrepreneurs are opening desktop-publishing centers where anyone can walk in, rent a computer and turn out slick publications. Business: page 50.
