...physician, Dr. B. Renault Able, began to pack the body in ice. Members of the Cryonics Society of California arrived to help. They spent eight hours, sending out periodically for more ice, getting the body frozen solid. They used artificial respiration and external heart massage to protect the brain from oxygen-loss damage until it was frozen, drained out the blood and replaced it with antifreeze solutions. Then Professor Bedford's icy body was flown to Phoenix, where Edward Hope, a wigmaker by trade, waited with the capsule he had designed and put the professor's remains...
...both more than some people would wish, and less than other advocate. We have been guided both by the demands imposed upon us by increased aggression and by the need for restrtaint in the application of force. We have been doing what the President judges to be necessary to protect the nation's vital interests, after hearing the views of the government's military and civilian experts. We shall continue to do what is necessary to meet the threat the Vietnamese and their allies face...
...pollution has become a worldwide preoccupation. Some 230 miles southwest of Tokyo, for example, school yards in the port city of Yokkaichi are filled with children running and playing games. But their shouts and laughter are muffled by yellow masks impregnated with chemicals to protect them against air polluted by nearby petrochemical plants. In Tokyo, where smog warnings were issued on 154 days last year, policemen in ten heavily polluted districts return to the station house to breathe pure oxygen after each half-hour stint on traffic duty in order to counteract the effects of breathing excessive amounts of carbon...
...draft unequivocally. It is an instrument of oppression both here and abroad. The so-called "commitments" for which the power structure claims we need an army are those of an imperialist foreign policy. Few Americans have vested interests in United Fruit or Standard Oil. Yet it is to protect the interests of precisely such corporations that American soldiers are forced to kill and die. No American would willingly give up his life--or even two years of it--just to protect the business interests of the few. Thus the Establishment must persuade the soldier that revolutions are Communist (i.e., evil...
When these two "escape clause" tariffs were first raised to protect U.S. industry from the squeeze of foreign competition, the reaction in Europe was, to say the very least, negative. In 1962 Belgium raised its duties on U.S. chemicals within 48 hours after U.S. duties on sheet glass were increased. In 1954 the U.S. raised its tariff on imported watch movements. Since then, the Swiss have threatened to allow no significant tariff reductions unless the U.S. eased its stand. Now both countries are pleased, and the European Economic Community as a whole is more hopeful of concrete achievements...
