...continued indefinitely. Johnson, in Honolulu to confer with South Korean President Chung Hee Park about both Viet Nam and Seoul's security problems (see THE WORLD), stressed that it had been a long time since the bombing limitation began on March 31. "Our restraint," added Rusk, "was meant to inspire discussions about ending this war, not to provide an excuse for propaganda warfare while the battle raged...
Much as it has meant to the community, the citizens are even prouder of the fact that the convention has become a famous oasis for folk buffs, talent scouts, and people who just like to hear some fancy bowin' and pickin'. In fact, Union Grovers are beginning to believe that a special providence watches over the event. Founder H. P.

However, the racial friction will be more lasting than the economic loss. The situation of Asians in Kenya was not good, but the British needlessly exacerbated it. The Commonwealth Immigration Act was unnecessary because the British passport only meant security to a majority of Asians. Many of them fully expected to return to India or Pakistan. The younger and more educated hoped to remain in Kenya while they could, then move to Britain or other Commonwealth countries. The Asians who wished to leave are now stateless or at best reluctant residents of Kenya. African animosity is certain to increase...
