...Britain's tight little island, the congestion of people, the spreading of the Welfare State (with its regulations as well as its benefits) and the inherent petty tyranny of multiplying bureaucrats add up to a frustrating experience for a determinedly individualistic nation. Even so doctrinaire a Socialist as the New Statesman's Editor Kingsley Martin grumbled last week: "Because there are too many people, regimentation becomes unavoidable, and so Socialism's basic idea of substituting cooperation for jungle fighting is lost; it becomes merely the demand for equal regimentation...
planned to meet rising European and U.S. small-car competition. Company will add $125 million in plant and equipment to boost daily output from 2,400 to 3,000 cars...
Across the U.S. last week, thousands of green-uniformed forest rangers and staffers (12,000 permanent, 10,000 temporary) were patrolling and supervising the 181 million acres of national forests that add up to one of the U.S. taxpayers' greatest assets. The 148 national forests, ranging in size and style from Alaska's 16-million-acre Tongass to California's 367-acre Calaveras Big Trees National Forest (sequoias), stretch across 39 states, occupy a massive one-twelfth of the continental U.S. land space, one-fifth of the land area of the Western states.

...known routinely as Route 128. But to U.S. industry, it is known more romantically as the Space Highway. Amid the landscaped woods of the industrial parks along commuter-clogged 128 are tucked scores of low, angular buildings bearing science-fiction names: Trans-Sonics, Tracerlab, Microwave, Dynametrics. These plants add up to the biggest and fastest-growing science-based complex* in the U.S., and provide the nation's most impressive proof of the vast new industrial potential of the electronics and space age. Beyond that, they are a dramatic demonstration of the fact that behind current new industrial development lies...
