It will bring to 60,000 the number of troops pulled out since the Administration outlined its gradual-withdrawal strategy last June, and will leave about 484,000 U.S. troops in Viet Nam. It will also leave Nixon well behind the self-imposed timetable he stumbled into when he announced that he hoped to beat former Defense Secretary Clark Clifford's call for disengagement of 100,000 men this year.

Recession probability: zero this month...
Proceeding in the knowledge that Harvard social scientists were very interested in the project, and that some kind of relationship to Harvard could probably be worked out, M. I. T. and ARPA put together a second and final draft of the M. I. T. proposal, and in June the Cambridge Project received its initial one- year grant of $1,510,000. Several Harvard professors began receiving support for work during the summer, although all these arrangements were on an individual basis, since Harvard has not yet decided to affiliate with the Project. The Project began holding regular meetings here during...
