Squibb explains: U.S.P. standards call for 98 tests, consuming 125 hours, at eleven steps in the manufacture, while Squibb's quality control requires 374 tests, taking 406 hours, at 35 stages. Squibb runs a three-hour test on one of the alcohols used in manufacturing, another of 16 hours on corn-steep liquor, and one of 22 hours on city water. The U.S.P. requires none of these. Moreover, Squibb offers its penicillin G in twelve different strengths, dosages and combinations, some of which make no money, while most manufacturers of generic penicillin G make only...

Even so, the C.I.O. long depended on many techniques originated by the Wobblies, ranging from the sitdown strike to integrated locals to a lively interest in civil rights.

Carnovsky's playing throughout this scene is a marvel. Here he lets himself lose control twice and shatters courtroom decorum by pounding on the judge's bench as though he were Khruschchev banging his shoe in the United Nations assembly.

DeGuglielmo argued that his plan would be less expensive than an alternate proposed by Councillor Thomas H.D. Mahoney. Mahoney wanted to award a contract for the construction of an incinerator but to continue with rubbish removal under the control of the City's Department of Public Works...
...assumption is that large areas of South Vietnam are so firmly under the control of the Viet Cong that their capture is unfeasible. To avoid a reckless squandering of American lives and resources, the Administration, Galbraith argues, should limit its military action to securing "the maximum of security, tranquility and well-being in the limited but populous areas that we control." In this way Galbraith hopes to maintain a U.S. commitment in Vietnam with a minimum loss of life until a negotiated settlement is achieved...
