...Apollo 11 was indeed a triumph of middle America. It showed what we and our values can create. That's one reason some of our liberal-radical detractors hate and fear the space program. They regard us of middle America as so many cows, to be milked without limit for their social programs. To keep us docile, they try to make us feel guilty for crimes we didn't commit, racial hatreds we don't feel (some of us are black too), poverty we didn't create. Apollo 11 smashed through that unearned guilt...
...snags involve over-the-counter shares, delivery of which is hampered by the lack of a clearinghouse outside New York City. Because of such jams, 18 member firms are operating under exchange-imposed restrictions. These variously mean that the firms cannot accept new accounts, cannot advertise, or must limit the number of trades per day. Since last December, the exchange has also required brokers to set aside capital to cover 10% of the market value of stock snagged in failures to deliver that are 40 to 49 days behind schedule and the penalty rises to 30% on "fails" that...

...EATING: Actual cooking is a time-consuming process, and has been abandoned for thawing and heating, which is not an unqualified advance. Since there is a limit-for most people a fairly low one-to how far the pleasures of sitting at table can be enhanced by increasing the amount and quality of the food, it is probable that eating will become an inferior pursuit...
...management companies more closely than the funds themselves, but the funds' activities are hardly outside the scope of its concern. New Hampshire Senator Thomas J. Mclntyre noted last week that the SEC had unsuccessfully advised the Senate Banking Committee to soften the language of a bill that would limit the fees that mutual funds can charge investors. Senator Proxmire said that he was "shocked" that Budge would negotiate for a fund job while that legislation was still pending. Other Senators also expressed chagrin. The bill has been passed by the Senate, but the House has not yet taken...
