Campaign Themes. Under JOBS (for Job Opportunities in Business Sector), the Government will refer the unskilled to one or another of 103 companies that have shown interest in the program. The firms would provide on-the-job training, with Washington picking up the tab for all extra costs (transportation, education, medical services) up to an annual $3,500 per worker. The aim: to put 100,000 hard-core unemployed on the job by June 1969, and 500,000 to work by 1971.

The musical, gestating since 1959, was supposed to star Rosalind Russell, but she got entangled in movie commitments...
...supported Florida Development Commission to promote the political development of Claude Kirk. Indeed, the commission reprints his speeches in handy brochures, distributes them widely, and has run up vast bills for photography and publicity. When newspapers revealed last week that the commission had picked up the $1,628 tab for Kirk's honeymoon flight to Germany this fall with his wife, the irrepressible Governor denied nothing and refunded the money forthwith.
