...creed of Negro nonviolence was the hallmark of Montgomery's Reverend Martin Luther King (TIME, Feb. 18), another brand of nonviolence marks the year-old administration of a remarkable Deep South governor, Mississippi's James Plemon Coleman. Coleman wants time to show what Mississippi can do on its own-and he probably wants to run for the Senate in 1960 against Race Baiter James Easttend. See NATIONAL AFFAIRS, The Six-Foot Wedge...
...National Association of Manufacturers, whose President Ernest G. Swigert last week damned Ike's budget as "extravagant and inflationary," proposes a massive whack of $6.5 billion. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce calls for cuts totaling $4.2 billion, and is still looking for soft spots. Chamber President John S. Coleman contends that a slash of at least $5 billion is "absolutely essential...

Trying the indoor mile for the first time at the Philadelphia Inquirer meet, he ran a slow 4:10.8, finished third behind Boston's George King (4:10.1) and Chicago's Phil Coleman (4:10.7).

Plastic boats, which were dubious experiments only a few years ago, have become so popular that they accounted for 25% of all boats shown. Most notable use of the new materials was in the show's 50 sleek cruising sailboats. Biggest crowd pleaser: Coleman Boat's new fiberglass, 41-ft. Bounty II, designed by Phil Rhodes, which sleeps six and sells for $18,500, about half the price of a wooden-hull boat...
