COVER: Smile, Please. The Tax Cut. The Royal Celebration. Cover: Photos by Bill Fitzpatrick.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
REST IN PEACE, NEW DEAL: Ronald Reagan's triumph on taxes last week came just as Congressional conferees were approving his draconian budget--and in combination, they reversed 50 years of government policy. NEWSWEEK'S cover package explains how Reagan wooed and bought his winning coalition, and shows who will be helped by his supply-side design. It also examines the economic risks of failure--and the political future of House Speaker Thomas P. (Tip) O'Neill and his battered Democrats.

AT LAST, A NEW BALL GAME: Just when the 1981 season seemed all but lost, the self-destructive baseball strike was settled last week. After clever behind-the-scenes prodding from a few impatient owners, management finally agreed to pretty much what the players wanted all along. They'll play ball beginning with the All-Star Game Sunday in Cleveland.

A FAIRY-TALE DAY: Once-upon-a-time came true for a few shining hours last week, as Prince Charles claimed his bride Diana, the new Princess of Wales. London blazed with spectacle and burst with renewed pride, and millions around the world watched on live TV. The wedding was a tonic for troubled Britain and a sign that royal pageantry lives on.

NEW PRESIDENT FOR THE POST CO.: As -of Sept. 1, The Washington Post Company, which owns NEWSWEEK, will have a new president and chief operating officer: Richard D. Simmons, 46, currently vice chairman of The Dun & Bradstreet Corp. Simmons replaces Mark J. Meagher, who resigned last January. Post chairman Katharine Graham praised Simmons's "strong background in the information business.".

MAKING 'SUNBEANS': Gene splicing began as a medical triumph, but now it has moved down to the farm--where scientists are developing plants that will resist herbicides, fix their own nitrogen for fertilizer and kill insects. Their work could blossom into a $100 billion industry.
