...race for survival in which our lives, our fortunes, our liberties are at stake. We are ahead now. But the only way to stay ahead in a race is to move ahead, and the next President will make decisions which will determine whether we win or whether we lose...
...statement accusing Nixon of failing to speak out on national issues. The nation and the party, said Rockefeller, cannot march "to meet the future with a banner aloft whose only emblem is a question mark."

...contract he must find financial backing. If Detwiler cannot produce-and there were unkind rumors in Leopoldville last week that Lumumba's pro-Communist advisers agreed to the contract in hopes of discrediting all Western businessmen-then the consequences might be disastrous. "If we should lose the resources of the Congo, it would be a serious blow to the free world," says Detwiler. He was counting on investors reacting to his dream as both an opportunity and an obligation. Certainly, the contract showed the willingness of the Congolese to reach westward for help instead of turning first to Russia...
