...righters would never be guilty of such sin of omission. Again showing your pro-Democratic bias, you demean Sen. Keating's repudiation of the Republican national ticket, attributing it out of hand to expediency instead of principle. Had you been aware of the tremendous pressure, and vicious mail such a stand elicits, I am not sure you would have shrugged it off so easily. Then, too, why not play up Robert Kennedy's poor relations with London Johnson, relations which caused him to leave Washington and come to New York in the first place...

The Johnson organization in Britain is the largest in Europe, and, with such guest speakers as Actors Anthony Quinn and Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Comedian Victor Borge and Novelist Eugene Burdick, has raised nearly $10,000, which is spent on direct mail and ads in service newspapers.

For novices used to worldlier ways, the monastic life is often a harsh surprise. Justice Arthur Goldberg, formerly the fire-chief U.S. Labor Secretary, is still restless. "The Secretary's phone never stops ringing," muses Goldberg. "The Justice's phone never rings-even his best...
...each of the four Beatles is already a pound millionaire. Their manager, who has also become a millionaire, recently turned down flat an offer from an American syndicate to buy the Beatles for $10 million. John, Paul, George and Ringo have earned so much abroad-London's Daily Mail estimates the amount at as high as $56 million last year-that they have also helped Britain's shaky balance of payments. "The Beatles have boosted our reserves," said Board of Trade President Ted Heath, barely suppressing a hearty Yeah, Yeah, Yeah...
