Another Goal. As if echoing that sentiment, the 25,000-member American Trial Lawyers Association last week reversed its previous opposition to the OEO plan as "costly, wasteful and inferior." Meeting in Los Angeles, the association warmly endorsed the idea and offered the aid of all members.* Even more approvingly, the American Bar Association last week urged Congress to double the OEO legal-aid budget to "a minimum" of $52 million. The goal is not only equal justice for the poor, said the A.B.A. It is also urgently needed "respect for law" in the "greatest breeding ground of the criminal...
...this one does not have to agree with those would-be Cassandras who moan that the federal government is preempting all fields of activity and is putting the state governments out of business.

He assumed that her opponent would be State Attorney General Richmond Flowers, 47, who alone among the candidates had made a vigorous bid for the state's swelling Negro vote.

Actually, when it comes to making symphony music, the Old World is not only inferior to the U.S., it isn't even old.

Last season the Vienna Philharmonic performed 50 concerts and the London Symphony 32, while the Philadelphia Orchestra played 179 and the Boston Symphony 206. Of the world...
...Samaritans frequently married Greeks and were Hellenized even before Alexander conquered them. A number of the nobles wore rings and seals with "lovely naked figures of Greek goddesses" as well as traditional symbols of Jewish religion. The discovery thus challenges the Biblical notion that the Samaritans were an inferior and degraded people. Seemingly, they were more like the good Samaritan that Jesus praised than those he referred to when he warned his disciples to "enter no town of the Samaritans" because they were defiled...
