All 1967 models will have steering columns that telescope forward on impact, dual braking systems to stop a car if a single set fails and anchorages for front-seat shoulder harnesses. Other improvements will come along later, based largely on the 26 safety features that manufacturers must build into cars that they sell to the Government.

Of course, restraining the symptoms may not be curing the disease; suppressed neuroses have a way of popping up in another form...

McCleery, director of FDA's Medical Advertising division, recommended that all claims based on Cass research be removed from labels--including the drug's chief selling point: "eight-hour pain relief"--this was not done, according to Fountain.
