Predictably, the biggest vote for high supports came from the grain fields of the Midwest. Yet even in Iowa, most subsidy-minded of all states, better than half of the farmers favored lower supports or none. The voting, by areas...
...apparently insignificant differences in wording reflected some major differences in attitudes. Of all the NATO powers, none is so eager to negotiate with Moscow as Great Britain. And as Prime Minister Harold Macmillan made his stately progress from Paris to Bonn to Washington, Britain's popular press had clamorously accorded him one diplomatic triumph after another (MAC DOES IT AGAIN), as if one intransigent ally after another had been converted to Macmillan's concept of what kind of deal the West might make with Russia over Berlin...
Another Go. Flight Lieut. John Carter, an R.A.F. medical officer, kept the unconscious Moss alive by pumping oxygen down a tube.

Romney hopes that his hard core of 2,800 dealers will stick with Rambler. During the industry's 1958 slump, Rambler saved many of them; last year they made a 2.8% profit on their total sales v. .2% for the average U.S. dealer. Another reason for holding...
