Brown called Kozlov's attention to Pope John's encyclical on peace, issued last week (see RELIGION). Declared Kozlov: "We will even support the Pope if he is for peace...
...with Majority Leader Johnson, and a substitute amendment was effortlessly pushed through, essentially the way the Administration wanted it. It provided $2 billion for development loans over the next two years-with a hooker: the Appropriations Committee must render its approval again next year. For President Eisenhower, whose previous support of long-range economic development had been overbalanced by his yearning to get a balanced budget, it was another bouquet from the boys on Capitol Hill.

Kennedy's reply, as the Ohio grapevine had it, was crisp. To get the nomination, he said, "I must rely on substantial public support, not a controlled convention.

To support these institutions, the Indian government settles $30,000,000 of its rather shaky budget upon them. The museums are also supported by whichever of the fourteen states of India they happen to be in--the State Museum and its regional brothers being placed under one State Director--and that's where...
