...Liar? Capehart is working. Last week he abandoned Washington to campaign in his bull-like voice, beat a fist into a palm, and roar: "There's a hundred ships loaded with Russian equipment on the high seas heading for Cuba.

Bayh claimed that Capehart had drawn $250,000 in federal benefits on his own farming operation while "trying to reduce the income of farmers," and that he had "deliberately violated" the rules of a Senate briefing on Cuba...
Moral: Humanity, drop dead! Humanity may not take Kurosawa's advice, but anybody who sees this picture will be shaken by it.

In a quiet Massachusetts laboratory, scientists carefully tuned a new and incredibly sensitive radio receiver designed to trap signals from far-out space. All over the U.S. last week, the story was the same: thousands of scientists and engineers sweated over strange new jobs−jobs more difficult than any they had ever attempted before. In a frenzy of creativeness they were producing new materials, machines, instruments, methods...
