...major purpose of all the influx and indexing is the daily compilation of a slim white 8-in. by 10½-in. document that is delivered to the White House in a black CIA car every evening between 6 and 7 o'clock. It bears CIA's emblem stamped in blue, is entitled "The President's Daily Brief," usually runs between three and six pages of single-spaced type, and covers the key intelligence "get" of the day.

High-grade corporate bond yields were down from 5.56% to 5%, municipal bonds from 4.26% to 3.50% and 91-day Treasury bills from 5.74% to 4.40%. the slide continued last week.
