...after the Schenley victory, Chavez began to concentrate his forces on another of the local growers, Goldberg and Sons. Though the other thirty growers in the Delano area will probably be easier to beat now that Schenley and DiGiorgio have fallen, they will have to be dealt with one by one. The process is painfully slow. Some of the strikers, with a year's experience now, have gotten quite good at organization, but they are getting tired. The town is tired of the Huelga, and the huelgistos are getting
...Jewish leaders. As reported in the press, it sounded as if he were criticizing the whole Jewish community and, worse still, threatening to link U.S. aid to Israel with Jewish support on Viet Nam on a quid pro quo basis. The tempest subsided only after United Nations Ambassador Arthur Goldberg had met with 40 Jewish leaders and assured them that the President was not trying to stifle dissent or equate U.S.Israeli relations with Jewish attitudes toward...
...recent evening about bedrock allegiances in the Cabinet. Their remarkable conclusion was that in the showdown Bobby would ultimately command the loyalties of Defense Secretary Robert McNamara, Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach, Labor Secretary Willard Wirtz, Agriculture Secretary Orville Freeman, Interior Secretary Stewart L.

This so-called "citadel of privity" was notably undermined in a New York case that stemmed from the 1959 crash of an American Airlines Lockheed Electra into the East River during an instrument approach to La Guardia Airport. Mrs. Anneliese Goldberg, whose daughter was among the 63 victims, filed suit, claiming that the accident was caused by a faulty altimeter that had registered a height of 500 feet when the plane was at ground level...
Privity seemed to bar the suit: the dead daughter had had no direct connection with either the altimeter maker or Lockheed, the airplane manufacturer. Even so, the New York Court of Appeals ruled in 1963 that Mrs. Goldberg could sue Lockheed, though not the altimeter maker, thus conspicuously dispensing with privity. (Ironically, Mrs. Goldberg decided not to sue Lockheed, simply settled out of court with American Airlines for some $10,000.) In the Goldberg case, relaxing the privity requirement also imposed "strict liability" on the manufacturer. Under this principle, the plaintiff is not obliged to show that the manufacturer lacked...
