The man at the center of Turkey's political earthquake is considerably less militant than he was 20 years ago, but he has not abandoned his Islamic and anti-Western beliefs. Necmettin Erbakan, the Islamic party leader who on Friday put together a coalition that made him Prime Minister of this resolutely secular country, has a grandfatherly manner and a broad, reassuring smile.

Above the 15th-century Gate of Heavenly Peace, in Tiananmen Square in Beijing, hangs the portrait of a monster. An avuncular visage, with receding, swept-back hair, polished-apple cheeks and eyes gazing over the heads of onlookers, Mao Zedong looms over China's heart. Perhaps no man is responsible for as many deaths in this century as Mao. More than 50 million people starved to death in the vast famine he visited on his country in 1960 and 1961. And 30 years ago, fighting for his political life, he issued a stream of exhortations that led China into the Cultural Revolution -- 10 years of madness, forced labor, exile, countless suicides and millions of killings. As Mao sought to tear down the Communist Party he had built, he managed to savage Chinese society, to obliterate its culture, to turn student against teacher, friend against friend, children against parents, all in a frenzy of political hysteria and denunciations.

Your photo issue should initiate a series. Every week the Magazine runs an article on language. Fine. But, more and more, the photo is becoming the lingua franca of our society. MELVIN E. LEVISON North Tarrytown, N.Y.

With 100 years of photos from which to choose, those selected disproportionately represented the 1980's and 90's, reflecting a myopic preoccupation with contemporary events, celebrities and popular culture. You squandered the rare opportunity to illustrate the visual essence of a century.

As part of my weekend morning ritual, I spent an hour with "100 Years of Pictures -- 1896-1996" (June 9), poring over the beautiful and historic photographs compiled by Kathy Ryan and the Magazine staff. The selection and presentation of these photos were worth much more than a thousand words. DAVID EULITT Lawrence, Kan.

I scarcely recognized Eugene Richards from your description of him as a "chronicler of the grisly." Yes, some of his most powerful images depict, for example, drug users and emergency rooms. But to dwell upon these raw topics is to miss other, more celebratory, stories and to neglect the true focus of the photographs: the people within them. Whether he is photographing a new mother seconds after birth or a troubled addict moments before shooting up, he brings to the photograph a compassionate concern for the person before the camera.

Ukraine's Parliament has adopted the country's first post-Soviet Constitution after months of resistance from Communist lawmakers. Approval of the measure came in a 315-36 vote that ended a dramatic 23-hour session on Friday. The Communists, who form the largest faction in Parliament, had opposed the proposed constitution, resisting provisions that allowed private ownership of land and factories. They also demanded that the Russian language have equal status with Ukrainian. The Communists and their allies command about 170 votes in the 450-seat Parliament; passage of the constitution required a two-thirds majority, or 301 votes.
