...from the marchers, they halted, donned gas masks. There was a pop, a thud, a flash of orange, then a smoky cloud. Soon, dozens of red, white and blue canisters loaded with tear gas and an antiriot irritant were sailing smack into the mob. Marchers scattered in confusion and pain...
...least able to enact a balanced budget that, with some relatively minor trimming, fell just $134 million under Lindsay's $4.6 billion request.

But neither for him nor his fellow sufferers is any preventive medicine effective. Indeed, it took Walter Reed's expert doctors weeks of tests before they could put the label "osteoarthritis" on their patient's wrist pains. After that, the prescription was as simple as the diagnosis had been painstaking: aspirin to ease...
