...timely. There have been far too many Nigerian propaganda articles, and far too few truthful ones on the subject. I find a ghastly parallel be tween the murder of 6,000,000 Jews by Germany, and the attempt by Nigeria to destroy Biafra, which will ultimately result in the death of 8,000,000 Ibos if nothing is done...
...Vice President's aides pooh-poohed all rumors, claiming at least 1,450 first-ballot votes for their man (needed to nominate: 1,312). Nonetheless, some Humphrey supporters were fearful that the whole operation was coming unstuck and that a delay in the convention-whether as a result of prolonged floor fights, paralyzing disorders outside the hall or anything else -could prove dangerous. The fact is that Humphrey has thus far failed to make much of an impression on the electorate or to demonstrate that he is his own man, not Lyndon Johnson...
...failed, ironically, when two other former Kennedy men, representing the McCarthy and McGovern camps, forced Sorensen to agree to a more dovish statement than Hum phrey was likely to approve. During a daylong hassle, Sorensen clashed repeatedly with McCarthy Speechwriter Richard Goodwin and Pierre Salinger, a McGovern aide.

It demands an immediate bombing halt (which the Administration opposes), a cutdown in offensive operations by the U.S. and a phased withdrawal of all foreign troops; but it makes...
...Chrysler with the Valiant. So successful were these com pacts that by 1962 the foreign share of the market had dropped to under 5%. Figuring that the battle was over, the Big Three made the mistake of allowing their compacts to grow in both size and price. The result has been a new upsurge in the popularity of imports, which grabbed 9.4% of U.S. sales in 1967 and are back over the 10% mark this year...
...reach 80% within the next two weeks. Campbell's 250 contract farmers in southern New Jersey, a group of whom has sued two unions for damage because of the strike, grow nearly 40% of the area's 21,000-acre crop. In California, where rotting tomatoes could result in a loss of well over $4,000,000 if the strike persists, farmers called on President Johnson to invoke the Taft-Hartley law to stop the shutdown. The biggest losers of all are the migrant workers. Thousands of them were stranded without pay in what is normally their most...
