...vote, in pointed reference to his liberal colleagues: "We didn't kid anybody but ourselves." Next day the Senate Banking and Currency Committee approved a substitute, trimmed-down housing bill of $1,050,000,000-$240 million above the amount recommended by President Eisenhower, but perhaps low enough to avoid another veto...

The private "system" would be strictly on its own, with only tuition grants for support. It could not possibly take over the public system's job. It could not buy enough school buildings from the state, because of reversion clauses specified by the original land donors; it could not begin to pay for new buildings.

...fissioning U-235 are run through a moderator made of graphite or heavy water, thus slowed from 10,000 miles a second to a modest one mile a second. Fast neutrons would bounce off or pass through the thorium, but at this speed neutrons are moving slowly enough to be captured by thorium 232 atoms, turning them into unstable thorium 233. When thorium 233 decays, after a brief half life of 23 minutes, it becomes protactinium 233, which in turn decays after a half life of 27 days, becomes uranium 233, a full-fledged nuclear fuel as fissionable...
