...already met with President Johnson, and he is similarly optimistic. "I've had a good deal of contact with him in the past several years," says King. "He means business. I think we can expect even more from him than we have had up to now. I have implicit confidence in the man, and unless he betrays his past actions, we will proceed on the basis that we have in the White House a man who is deeply committed to help us." Thus the support of the President for a strong civil rights bill provides a basis for high...
Meany presented two proposals designed to counter the effects of automation: a reduction of the work week to 35 hours and an increased hourly wage. In addition, his speech contained an implicit warning to union leaders that unless they fought every attempt to install new equipment, even these two proposals would become meaningless.

Even more, he said, he despises...
...Isabella, for instance, is straight out of the 19th century romantic novel-blue-eyed, fair-haired, and possessed of a piety that "shone forth from the very depths of her soul with a heavenly radiance which illuminated her whole character." It was her remarkable innocence, says Prescott, and her implicit trust in her "ghostly advisers" that caused her to fall under the influence of the villainous Torquemada, who established the Spanish Inquisition...
