...comparative middle-of-the-roaders-by Mississippi standards-beat former Governor Ross Barnett and four other candidates. Facing each other in the runoff will be State Treasurer William Winter, 44, an able administrator and reluctant segregationist, who won the top spot with 218,045 votes, and Congressman John Bell Williams, 48, a Democrat for Goldwater in 1964, who generally avoided airing his racist views and got 194,230 votes.

Thursday's market fell nearly ten points immediately after the tax message was made public. But by the closing bell, almost all the drop had been wiped out, and the loss for the day was a minuscule .29 points. On Friday the industrials went up 1.79 points for another 1967 record and a five-day gain of 22.24 points...
...ground that the rate should have even been higher. Many corporations postpone bond offerings if interest rates leap too high. "We don't have much option," says A. T. & T.
