...between the U.S. and Mexico have rarely been so warm as they are now-the visit raised bright hope for renewed inter-American solidarity in the Johnson presidency.

Statewide, 61,096 more Virginia Negroes are enfranchised than in 1964, increasing total Negro voting strength to 205,000, or 19.7% of the Old Dominion's 1964 election turnout.
