...most satisfying parts of our work," says Maria Luisa, "is simply putting our readers in touch with other people-so they can exchange ideas and even help solve a problem." She remembers a Hungarian agronomist who had read in TIME about a California farmer whose artichoke crop was being ruined by mice. We gave him the farmer's address, and perhaps, after all, he did have a better mousetrap...
Ironically, the procedure by which the courts could call on HEW for expert help had been regarded as a significant development in the drive for integration. By taking cases in groups, this approach would save time. Since the programs would be created by the Office of Education's personnel, they obviously would be in compliance with federal regulations.

But to talk to outsiders about L.B.J. and his works is to court disaster. After a news commentator at Johnson's KTBC-TV in Austin talked...
...June, however, as the CIA tells it, the Green Berets came to the CIA for advice on what to do with a Vietnamese -whom they did not then identify-suspected of being a double agent. The CIA claims that it said that it could do nothing to help, but strongly urged the Green Berets not to kill the man. The agency repeated the advice after learning the agent's name from the Green Berets a few days later. The CIA says that it had not heard of Chuyen before that moment...
