Framing his resolution so that it would lay the groundwork for similar legislation on space agencies, he sounded out Democrats and Republicans alike for reaction. Last week, when G.O.P. leaders discovered what he had in mind, they hotfooted it to the White House, warned that Johnson was about to capture another popular issue just as he had captured defense preparedness...
...women with agonized faces, clutching swollen heads and moaning for Atraxin. Daiichi and competitors put up billboards at Tokyo's busiest intersections, where stalled motorists and scared-running pedestrians were urged to help themselves to "cope" by taking a pill. There was even a suggestion (eventually dropped) that similar ads be placed at railroad crossings, bridges and volcano craters, the meccas of the suicide-minded.

Cox called a "debacle." Three weeks ago Kennecott set the pace for domestic producers...
