...many of you would recommend tomorrow a tax in crease for the purpose of restraining our economy? Those of you that would, I wish you would raise your right hand." Not a hand went up. In that case, said Johnson, he would expect them to defer, stretch out or abandon at least $6 billion of a total of $60 billion in planned capital expenditures. Several agreed to try. Campbell Soup President Willam B. Murphy ordered aides to cut back on all capital expenditures except those that are "absolutely required," and not to be outsouped, H. J. Heinz Co. Board Chairman...
...pagan gods adored by other nations. It is even questionable to some whether Moses understood Yahweh to be mankind's only God, the supreme lord of all creation. Even after the emergence of Israel's faith, there is plenty of Biblical evidence that the Hebrews were tempted to abandon it: the prophets constantly excoriate the chosen people for whoring after strange gods...
...Tweedledee of Anglican theology, Bishop Robinson of Woolwich, England, and Bishop James A. Pike of California. Both endorse the late Paul Tillich's concept of God as "the ground of being."

...fills the gap between his more inspired movies by sketching out such trifles as Outsiders. Heroine Anna Karina plays a wistful student who meets two ne'er-do-wells and helps them plan the robbery of her aunt's chateau. They bungle the job, but meanwhile abandon themselves to a couple of amusing Godardian escapades-taking over a cafe with an impudent little dance of alienation, romping through the Louvre in about nine minutes to beat the record set by a busy American tourist. The rest is pretty random stuff, discomfitting evidence that Godard's blazing love...
