Haddon outlined 23 safety features that he proposes to see added to all '68 model cars. Automen have until Jan. 3, 1967 to make protests. The list, with or without amendments, will go into effect on Jan. 31. It seems unlikely that many objections will be made, since most of the innovations are already incorporated into '67 models, and Haddon dropped two original proposals-standard-height bumpers and rear-window defoggers-which caused earlier concern on the part of auto companies...
...Federal Aviation Agency said that sometime this month, it will recommend a winner in the design competition between Lockheed Aircraft Corp. and Boeing Aircraft Co. for the long-range, 1,800-m.p.h. model to be used in overseas flights. President Johnson is expected to make the final decision about Jan. 1. The FAA also ordered a quick investigation of whether either design could be adapted into a medium-size SST that would avoid the sonic boom that may well restrict the larger plane from flying over land routes. For that study, the FAA gave a $65,000 contract to North...

SPAIN, A HISTORY IN ART by Bradley Smith. 296 pages. Simon & Schuster. $30. An explosion of color that richly and often wittily tells the complicated story of Spain's long journey from obscurity (TIME, Jan. 21). The somber Iberian chord is struck again and again-in El Greco's haunted saints and cities, Goya's grim disasters of war, processions of penitents flogging themselves and one another. Appropriately, the final plate is Picasso's brush drawing of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza...
