...them and tell what they're doing. So we end up dribbling money into this or that, funding a program for a year or two, then dropping it." Daniel Moynihan, head of the M.I.T.-Harvard Joint Center for Urban Studies, uses the axiom: "The more programs, the less impact." Coordination is almost as sorely needed as money if federal efforts are to succeed-and both, so far, have been in short supply...
...impact of the Negro vote was also evident in the gubernatorial race, in which two comparative middle-of-the-roaders-by Mississippi standards-beat former Governor Ross Barnett and four other candidates. Facing each other in the runoff will be State Treasurer William Winter, 44, an able administrator and reluctant segregationist, who won the top spot with 218,045 votes, and Congressman John Bell Williams, 48, a Democrat for Goldwater in 1964, who generally avoided airing his racist views and got 194,230 votes.

In the afternoon, the McCormick forces are represented briskly by the ex-Hearst Chicago's American; Field Enterprises publish the once-great Daily News...
...developing it, the material is 48% more effective than any armor now in use. "The difference between this material and other nylon fabrics is primarily a matter of weave," says Weinberger, who is keeping the pattern a secret until his patent is granted. "It works by diverting the impact energy from the impact point." Threads of the new material, says Davis Aircraft President Robert L. Davis, "pull together and tighten up when struck by a bullet, force it to wobble, then actually pucker around the projectile and stop...
