...vote went Republican, compared to roughly one-third in both 1956 and 1960. In Ohio the Negro vote dropped from 29% for Nixon to 2% for Goldwater-accounting for the defeat of Robert Taft Jr. in his senatorial campaign. At the same time, the Northern white backlash did not develop: Goldwater failed to carry a single county in Maryland, Indiana and Wisconsin, where Alabama's Governor George Wallace had run strongly in presidential primaries...
Many a mother still believes that measles is one of those unavoidable childhood illnesses and amounts to nothing more than a seven-day siege of spots and fever with no lasting ill effects, but doctors know better. Every year, thousands or tens of thousands of children develop pneumonia from measles, and many of them die. Even worse is the fate of many of the 4,000 or so each year who develop encephalitis and do not die but are doomed to spend the rest of their lives in homes for the mentally retarded. Between its killing and crippling effects, measles...
...company called Badische Anilin und Soda Fabrik. Like the two others, Bayer and Hoechst, B.A.S.F. proved to be a true heir to the vaunted Farben inventiveness and enterprise.

If a group is undesirable and also commits crimes, as many Klan units do, then state and Federal prosecutors and courts should handle them. If a group is merely undesirable, the government--both legislative and executive--should leave well enough alone...
...biggest supplier to the nation's bottle blondes ("Is it true... blondes have more fun?"). Clairol is test-marketing a line of lipsticks, nail polishes and other cosmetics keyed to its hair colors. In a business of tough competitors and fickle customers, Schwartz spends $10 million yearly to develop new products, more than $75 million on advertising. Among Bristol-Myers' contributions to American civilization: the first buffered aspirin (Bufferin), the first non-peroxide hair coloring (Born Blonde), the first roll-on deodorant...
