...selling millions of dollars worth of the metal to the Government every year, and thereby adding to the surplus, it complained that it would be "unfair for the Government to put this aluminum on the market." Heeding the objections, the Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization prevented the sale...
...TUNGSTEN. Even after President Kennedy said in January that he was "astonished" at the huge stockpiles and triggered an investigation, federal bureaucracy blocked an eminently sensible sale of tungsten.

Upholding the right of married couples to practice birth control, the report condemned state laws prohibiting the sale of contraceptives to married persons. Nonetheless it warned against the tendency to regard the sex relationship as a "mechanism" unconnected with personal responsibility, and deplored the increase in early marriages often followed by early divorces. The committee urged the Presbyterian Board of Christian Education to start a sex-teaching program...
