...Swelling Stream. A substantial part of the President's speech was given over to the war, a remarkable change of emphasis from his 1965 State of the Union address, which contained only 126 words on the Viet Nam conflict. This time, Johnson carefully and lucidly redefined the principles behind the U.S. commitment in Southeast Asia. In keeping with the almost bland tone that he brought to the rest of the speech, he managed to discuss a white-hot situation without so much as a hint of belligerence. Yet there was an unmistakable undertone of strength and determination...
...basic plant, the ninth domestic petrochemical operation for fast-growing Phillips, will be erected on 400 acres of sugar-cane fields in Guayama district on Puerto Rico's south shore. Phillips will invest $45 million in the core plant, receive a twelve-year tax forgiveness, get on stream in 21 months.

Whether they will also tend to choke off investments that produce a golden stream of returning profits is another question. Voicing that fear last week, General Electric President Fred J. Borch expressed alarm at the global trend toward "resurgent nationalism" in economic affairs. "Businessmen all over the world cannot fail to be greatly concerned," he said, "about today's mushrooming restrictions on international trade...
