Incongruous. The bill will postpone the implementation of any lower-court orders to bus or transfer students for the purpose of racial balance until all appeals to higher courts have been resolved, but not beyond Jan. 1, 1974. Federal funds could be used to carry out court-ordered busing if requested by local authorities, but not if it involves sending a child to an inferior school. Somewhat incongruous in a bill that could slow down integration of the schools, President Nixon's request for $2 billion to be spent over two years to help communities desegregate their schools...

...budget deficit for this fiscal year will fall well short of the $38.8 billion projected by President Nixon last January. It will be anywhere from less than $30 billion to $32 billion. The overwithholding of income taxes (TIME, Jan. 24) will reduce the deficit by $6 billion in fiscal 1972. In addition, the President wanted to spend a lot of federal money in a hurry to help lift the economy, but Government agencies simply could not speed up payments and new orders that fast. Much of the spending that Nixon had hoped for this year will be delayed until fiscal...
...fight -and succumb to-a renewed Holy Roman Empire probably led by Germany. Then a Chinese-Russian alliance will fight the battle of Armageddon with the victor. At first, Herbert Armstrong predicted the beginning of the end for the late 1930s. The most recent Apocalypse was due on Jan...
