Cost is still the biggest problem. Carnegie Tech spends $3,000,000 a year just to operate its three-computer Compcenter, which will add a fourth computer and employ 14 full-time professors next fall-partly by courtesy of a $1,000,000 gift from Richard K. Mellon. With 43 remote stations, Dartmouth's $2,500,000 facility pegs the cost for each second of student use at 70. Though appreciative of vast federal help in building computer facilities for Government research, college administrators voice a universal complaint-Government auditors do not allow charges for student...
...even New York's City Hall cannot employ 20,000. Ideally, the mass of Democrats and independents who worked for Lindsay in '65, could be persuaded to change their registration. Price had a vision of dozens of Lindsay Republican Organizations mushrooming all over the city providing direct lines of communication between the neighborhood and City Hall. A resident could then walk into a neighborhood club and complain about the gaping pot-hole down the block or the broken traffic light.

But this is not the final judgment, for Brazil has reached a middle stage in its development at which the dynamics of modernization can work wonders if the country can only channel its energy to employ them. Perhaps that channel will be provided by Arthur Costa e Silva and by Latin America's new awareness that it must act now-and together-to solve its problems.

...similar except for slight variations in idiom and pronunciation, but Serbian is written in the Cyrillic alphabet (as is Russian) and Croatian in the Latin characters of the West. The Yugoslav constitution recognizes Croatian and Serbian as a single tongue, and in official documents the government is supposed to employ variants of both languages...
...visible: perquisites and privileges, abuse of public funds and private gifts. A Congressman's or Senator's allowance for his office staff is strictly apportioned by law according to the size of his constituency-and is usually inadequate. Many Congressmen (51 at latest count) of modest means employ relatives in staff jobs, and the practice is not necessarily wrong. In Powell's case, however, his wife did no work in his office and he just pocketed her salary...
