...these nightmarish conditions will take tough, well-trained troops, and last week the U.S. and its allies were quietly preparing such a force. A token group of Australian infantrymen last week took station at Bienhoa airbase-part of a joint 1,000-man Australian-New Zealand contribu tion to the war effort. Two thousand South Koreans are already in Viet Nam, and Seoul still echoes with rumors of another 15,000-man South Korean combat force being readied for Viet Nam service...
...born David Dubinsky, president of the 440,000-member International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union. Last week, at 73, Dave Dubinsky was re-elected for a twelfth three-year term and was awarded a $50-a-week raise (to $31,000 a year). As usual, he had only token opposition.

Only a handful of Southerners cling to the illusion that they can sell segregation to the rest of the country, and hardly anyone still believes in the use of violence, except a few backwoods sheriffs and chili-parlor hoodlums. Police Commissioner Claude Armour of Memphis, a city with an excellent integration record, puts...

The Quai d'Orsay therefore announced that it would send only an "observer" to next week's annual SEATO meeting in London, though all other members are sending foreign ministers. "Deplorable," declared the conference's British hosts, who had been flattering themselves that their understanding with De Gaulle was rather good since Harold Wilson's visit to Paris four weeks ago, and had hoped that the French might underwrite a condemnation of Indonesian aggression in Malaysia...
