Messianic Materialism. He does indeed. Along with Isaiah and the Gospels, and in far less murky prose, The Rich and the Poor is a Baedeker to the Great Global Society. Based on a series of lectures for the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. in 1961, Economist Ward's book is an evangelistic yet pragmatic argument that the developed nations must generously employ their scientific and economic resources to help the world's havenots. Johnson has repeatedly echoed the same theme...
Carefully assembled to exclude Ramblers, a cavalcade of cars rolled past the plant of American Motors Corp. in Kenosha, Wis., horns blaring to attract attention. From a truck at the head of the cavalcade, a group of men lifted a flower-topped coffin bedecked with signs that accused American Motors of attempting to "bury our union," bore it around the plant like pallbearers. The demonstration was organized and manned by members of United Auto Workers Local 72, who last week, to protest the firing of a union steward, struck American Motors at a crucial moment in its history and thus...

...where a 1963 merger of San Francisco's Crocker-Anglo National Bank and Los Angeles' Citizens National Bank into the CrockerCitizens National Bank is under attack in Federal court, the Justice Department proposed a more unusual remedy.

...advertisers that do not name their rivals in so many words still make it unmistakable where the com petition is. When Avis calls itself No. 2, readers know at once that Hertz is No. 1. "There are only two well-known color films in America," begins General Aniline & Film Corp.'s new ad for Anscochrome, thus immediately identifying Kodak as its chief competitor without actually saying so. Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing Co.'s ad for Dynachrome gets the same result by boasting that its color film produces just as good pictures as "the stuff in the yellow box." Reflected...
