Admiral Arleigh Burke, Chief of Naval Operations, was polite-but his meaning was clear. Navyman Burke's key words: "misgivings," "apprehensions." The law, said he, could be interpreted at some future date "to mean things that the Secretary and the President did not mean." Could it permit the Secretary to eliminate a specific function of one of the services? "People do that, sir," said Burke pointedly. "People eliminate things." Arleigh Burke's statement was an unmistakable call to the committee for help: "This committee is a proper group to resolve these differences into a sound plan founded...
...blamed it on the K.K.K. or the "Klan-minded." And action followed the talk. Jacksonville's Mayor Haydon Burns called a quick meeting of Southern mayors eager to do something, by week's end was in all-day working session with mayors and police chiefs of 28 key cities. Two decisions out of their closed-door sessions...
Working with what is known about the 28 accelerator-produced new particles, Grebe theorizes that they may all be multiples or combinations of only two: pairs of the negatively charged electron and the positively charged electron (positron). Reason is his discovery of two key particle ratios: that between the mass of mu and pi mesons, and that between the mass of the proton and sigma hyperon. Each proves to equal TT divided by four; this produces a new constant (1.12888), based on the inverse of the square root of TT divided by four, which Grebe calls "g." This tool "opens...
Since the Adventists made up 8.8% of the total, and were comparable in age, sex, occupations, residence and other key characteristics, they might have been expected to be afflicted by disease in the same proportion. Not so, Drs. Wynder and Lemon found. Items: ¶Against an expected ten cases of lung cancer among Adventists, there was only one, a man who died of lung cancer in 1955. He had smoked a pack a day for 25 to 30 years before joining the church in 1941, then had sworn off. (As a former metal worker, he may have been exposed...
...including massive aid to Red China and the satellites) is only one-tenth of the U.S. effort, the Soviets make the ruble go many times farther than the U.S. dollar. While the U.S. program has benefited almost every non-Communist country, Russia has concentrated 95% of its aid in key countries it hopes to win. In Egypt, Syria, India, Afghanistan, Indonesia and Yugoslavia, the total Soviet program during the last 2½ years has been double the free world's. The U.S. grants aid only when it considers a project economically sound; Russia picks projects largely for propaganda value...
