...method is not recommended for routine, continuous use because some babies develop a rash from 502A. But it can be instituted whenever a virulent strain of "hospital staph" is detected in a nursery, and in at least six hospitals it has halted such invasions...
Finally one of the co-detectors of man-made neutrinos, Dr. Frederick Reines of Cleveland's Case Institute of Technology, came up with a successful method. Near Johannesburg, he went to work in a 10,492-ft.-deep chamber, which he knew would shield out nearly all radiation from the surface except the deep-penetrating neutrinos. He lined the sides of the chamber with 36 containers of common mineral oil. Then he waited for an expected reaction of several stages: 1) the neutrinos hit atomic nuclei in the rock surrounding the chamber; 2) this interaction generated particles called...
This time, instead of cutting prices, Schulte is selling his "dew-fresh" eggs at 60 to 90 more per dozen than his competitors. His gimmick: stamping the laying date on each egg, rushing the eggs to stores by the following morning and guaranteeing their freshness. "My method means sales ten times as great per worker as in the textile industry," he says. "It shows how ridiculous it is to talk about agriculture's not being profitable." Germany's notoriously inefficient small farmers and egg distributors look at such ingenuity differently−as unfair competition. They are clamoring...
N.A.A.C.P.'s Roy Wilkins, Louisville, 1963: "The Negro citizen does not subscribe to violence as a method of securing his rights. But he has come to the point where he is not afraid of violence. He no longer shrinks back. He will assert himself, and if violence comes, so be it." Representative Adam Clayton Powell, at a Black Muslim rally in 1963 in New York: "Anything we get we will have to fight for, to seize for ourselves. We will invade the white man's heaven, the United States." James Foreman, then executive secretary of S.N.C.C., in August...
...from the farm to the city. "Something must be done," warns Brazilian Economist Glycon de Paiva. "Without population control, any real economic development is impossible." Rhythm & Abortion. Part of the problem is Latin America's Roman Catholic tradition, which opposes any means of family regulation except the rhythm method. Unfortunately, that form of birth control has proved far too sophisticated for Latin America's widely uneducated masses. Another factor is machismo, a he-man complex that makes sexual prowess and large families-in or out of wedlock-a matter of male pride. In some areas of Latin America...
