...replace him as Secretary; but while they would probably agree on goals, the two men have markedly different ideas on how to achieve them. Gardner was convinced that the nation could not wait for the next upward cycle and resigned in disenchantment when he felt the President did not share his sense of urgency about the plight of the cities. Cohen is no less unhappy with the current negative mood in Congress and the nation, but he is willing to wait, moving ahead meanwhile in small steps and shuffles...
They were making some headway. In New York, a number of party officials came over to the Kennedy camp immediately, and although Johnson forces vowed resistance in every district, Kennedy seemed likely to capture a good share of the convention votes.

...Hoffman teach with what Naval officials would like to see their future officers learn." The Dean was referring specifically to administrative difficulties, e.g., that Social Sciences 112 is not taught every year, and his statement does not at all belie that he or the members of the CEP share the Crimson's belief that the Navy would like to change the content of those professors' courses, or that the Navy doesn't want its students to learn what they have to teach. The Navy never asked to change the courses; what it did ask was permission to require its students...
