Goldwater's California win was impressive in light of the powerful opposition, but it was about as narrow as a win can be. To some observers it gave further proof that Barry is a poor vote getter. Indeed, his record in this year's previous primaries was unimpressive. He lost to Lodge's write-in candidacy in New Hampshire. He won Illinois, but his only on-the-ballot opponent, Maine's Margaret Chase Smith, got 26% of the vote. He won Indiana, but Harold Stassen, of all people, got 26%. He won Nebraska, but write...
Basis for the new ban: the Minister of Justice, who under the law need not furnish proof, declared himself "satisfied" that Luthuli had engaged in "prohibited" activities and espoused the "cause of Communism." He also linked Luthuli to other leaders of the African National Congress, Nelson Mandela and Walter Sisulu, currently on trial for their lives on charges of sabotage...
...Crux. One alternative, already suggested by such people as France's Charles de Gaulle, is to neutralize all of Southeast Asia. But U.S. officials would have to do an awful lot of rethinking before they bought that one, for Laos is proof positive of just how badly neutralization can flop. Another possibility is to expand the war to North Viet Nam with bombing raids and guerrilla attacks. That, too, has its pitfalls, for the upshot could be massive Red Chinese intervention, and another Korea. Still a third option is to keep muddling, as the U.S. has been doing...
Even more exciting than the see-as-you-talk phone to the nation's businessmen and economists is the impact of A.T.&T.'s spend-as-you-grow plans. As proof of its faith in the economy, A.T.&T. in 1964 will undertake the largest program of expansion and modernization ever launched by any company in history. The $3.35 billion that the company will spend will account for 71% of all capital spending by U.S. business, create 180,000 new jobs in supplier companies and do much to keep the U.S. economy's greatest period of peacetime...
Zoologists have long been satisfied with the evolutionary theory that holds that humans and monkeys are closely related. But the theorists always welcome additional evidence, and last week they got some striking chemical proof. Drs. B. H. Hoyer, B. J. McCarthy and E. T. Bolton of the Carnegie Institution demonstrated that the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) in human genetic material has many sections that are identical with monkey...
