...Joint Center over the next three years. The Joint Center, which was established by Harvard and M.I.T. in 1950 with the help of Ford money, received a seven-year grant in 1966 of $1.4 million. The terms of this grant will be revised so that the Joint Center can expend it all by 1970 instead of by 1973. This change will raise the rate of expenditure of the Ford money for the next three academic years to $400,000 per year, rather than $200,000 per year.

Few such cases would probably ever arise, and even fewer would be upheld by the courts, but only under these circumstances can a truly free market of ideas exist...
...were offered," he observed. "But I can tell you now that I return more confident and hopeful than when I left." Though the trip may have had little impact on the Viet Nam war, Johnson had seemingly managed to convince Asian leaders that the U.S. was genuinely willing to expend its treasures to guarantee the security and prosperity of the western Pacific and to help the area develop a new sense of regional cooperation. Whether or not that realization was worth the effort and expense, said the President, "history will decide...
