Absolutely Wrong. Strong criticism of the President has echoed through the daily press throughout the past month. His economy report evoked sneers: "Many words, little substance," said the Dallas Times Herald. His elevation of Labor Secretary Arthur Goldberg to the U.S. Supreme Court, while greeted with approval in most quarters, outraged the Memphis Commercial Appeal ("a cynical payoff") and scared Columnist David Lawrence ("What a shiver of apprehension passes through the country...
When Architect Bertrand Goldberg tried to explain this concept to his mother-in-law, she replied: "That's simple. It's what we used to call living above the store."

Already receiving $1,100,000 a year from AID, Premier Williams had no hesitation in pronouncing Trinidad "unequivocally west of the Iron Curtain...
...Modern Art, and runs heavily to framed smudges of color (in David's private washroom, there is a Cézanne lithograph). Few Chase executives try to understand their boss's artistic acquisitions, and his family does not share his tastes. Peggy and the children recently assembled a Rube Goldberg statue from pipes, wrenches, tubes and scrap metal and presented it to David in all solemnity as their own latest artistic find. Tolerant of the teasing, David defends his selections: "They might not mean anything to you now, but if you look at them for three or four days, you will...
