With an editorial budget that has doubled to $8,000,000 over the past six years, the Washington bureau staff has been increased from two to twelve, the foreign bureaus from three to 15. Full-time reporters have been put to work in the arts, science and medicine.

Safety engineers at Harvard, Cornell, some of the insurance companies and in the Government believe that it is possible to build a stylish and economical yet fairly fail-safe car that would cut highway casualties by half. Achieving that would require, among other things, more reliable brakes and sturdier tires, bigger mirrors, better window visibility, and other devices to help prevent the "first collision"-the crash between a car and another object.
