...with great reluctance then that the President approved a $1.8 billion increase in federal spending for highway construction, and he showed similar hesitation when he signed a $1.8 billion housing bill. Eisenhower's equating "sound national policy" with maintaining rigid federal-state relationships is, however, ironic and dangerous, especially at a time when sound national policy requires initiative on the part of the government.

...mass of the proton and sigma hyperon. Each proves to equal TT divided by four; this produces a new constant (1.12888), based on the inverse of the square root of TT divided by four, which Grebe calls "g." This tool "opens the door," produces a periodic table of particles similar to Mendeleev's 19th century periodic table of chemical elements.

These relations indicate the presence...

...cockpit, or a special mechanic-engineer (from $4,800 to $12,000) without pilot training? Last week, as a result of the fight, Western Air Lines was in its ninth week of strike, with all 83 flights grounded and corporate losses running to $35,000 daily. The threat of similar "third-man" strikes hangs ominously over Eastern, Pan American, T.W.A. and American Airlines, whose militant pilots only postponed a strike a fortnight ago on special pleas from the National Mediation Board...

...space would be made available in the Dunster dining hall if plans to eliminate an adjoining suite and create a private dining room materialize.
