...competition. The competition comes not only from other savings institutions but from a new generation of corporation treasurers who, instead of putting their idle cash into banks, earn more interest on it by buying commercial paper and U.S. Treasury bills. Says Rockefeller: "We in the city banks need a broader base in retail banking...
Scientist Edward Teller, who declared in a California speech: "There is no doubt that the best scientists as of this moment are not in the U.S., but in Moscow." Broader Base. Other U.S. scientists were less pessimistic. They emphasized that because Russia was still operating behind a curtain of secrecy, no one outside the Soviet Union could really gauge the scientific accomplishment of the two-man mission. The Russians did not announce the launchings until the capsules were in orbit, and kept strict control over all information. They did not reveal the size of either capsule, as they had done...
Those men who do choose to work for integration face another problem which is rooted within the traditions of their community.

But its purpose was much broader and more important to the U.S. than that. The blast was principally designed to help develop a defense against large intercontinental missiles-and most of the observations made by thousands of official instruments are still military secrets. In fact, nonofficial observers report that radio communication was not blacked out for as long as expected. Tokyo's communications with the U.S. were back in working...
