...compatible. With main facilities still divided between Cleveland (Thompson) and Los Angeles (Ramo-Wooldridge), the company manufactures automobile parts (pistons, valves, fuel pumps) and aircraft components (turbine wheels, hydraulic pumps) in the East, turns out most of its aerospace and electronic gear in the West. The tidy mix brings TRW 56% of its sales from commercial and industrial customers, 44% from Government contracts...

Argentina, which fondly expected to sell Japan some of the needed grain, was incensed at the change, only grudgingly signed the final agreement...
...they stood before him in 1959 in the Caroline County, Va. courtroom. "Almighty God," he intoned, "created the races white, black, yellow, Malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents. The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix." With that, Judge Bazile sentenced the newlywed Lovings to one year in jail. Their crime: Mildred is part Negro, part Indian, and Richard is white...
