Stop & Go. Indeed, another futile bombing pause aimed at improving the prospects for peace could have precisely the opposite effect. "With every cessation of bombing," observed New York Representative Emanuel Celler, "the hopes of our people for peace rose, only to be dashed by the negation of peace by the North Vietnamese." Because such frustration only intensifies demands for escalating the war, he said, "it is foolhardy to play with the emotions of our people by continued stop-and-go signs." To U.S. military planners, more than emotions are involved. A pause, said General William C. Westmoreland, the U.S. commander...
TIME's first months were rough, but circulation gradually rose until, in 1926, it had reached 118,661. In 1925, TIME moved briefly to Cleveland, where it first used color on the cover and adopted the red border. Hadden did not like Cleveland, and the magazine was back in New York a little more than two years later. Hadden and Luce agreed to alternate as editor and business manager, each doing his job for a year. Then, on March 11, 1929, the partnership ended in tragedy. Hadden died, at 31, of a strep infection. TIME was just six years...

Blond, still boyish at 41, a graduate of the University of Michigan where he was the only twelve-letter man in the school's history, Elliott survived his share of losing seasons, took his team to the Rose Bowl in 1964, was so highly thought of as an administrator that both Illinois and Northwestern offered him the post of athletic director...
Perhaps the most significant factor is that the U.S. consumer, who had to dip into savings last year to cover increased costs and higher taxes, is now replenishing his bank account. Personal saving rose in the fourth quarter of 1966 to $30.4 billion, or 5.9% of disposable income, and is now running at an even higher rate of 7% . Last week, in an effort to attract some of these funds, President Johnson and Treasury Secretary Henry Fowler launched a campaign to sell "Freedom Shares." To be sold only to people who buy regular Government bonds, the new notes will mature...
