...Jackson, Governor Coleman acknowledged that he had received an FBI report, refused to reveal its contents. There would, he said, be no prosecution for at least six months.

The businessmen thought that a steel strike might slow the economy's pace somewhat in 1959's second half, but not enough to take the zip out of industry-or prevent it from hitting new peaks in many important sectors...
