...alert press" for the misinformation and "emotional antipathy to high taxes" that have stirred budget "hysteria." In the budget debate's first round, said Lawrence, the press generally misinterpreted or overplayed Treasury Secretary Humphrey's celebrated press conference warning of a depression "that will curl your hair" unless the 1958 budget were drastically reduced. Columnist Lawrence, after studying the press conference transcript, pointed out that too many news stories had failed to bring out that Humphrey was referring not to the current budget but to the consequences of continued high spending and high taxation "over a long period...
...general, the physicists are less alarmed than the biologists are. Says Director Samuel K. Allison of the University of Chicago's Enrico Fermi Institute: "Unless the rate of [bomb] testing is greatly stepped up, there is little or no danger to the general public. But if every nation gets into testing, the situation could be extremely serious." He favors an international limit on the power of bombs that may be tested...
...known to justify taking risks with the world's health. Most German scientists feel the same way. The Japanese, who get fallout from both east and west, are especially emphatic. They believe that fission products now in the stratosphere may be dangerous already and will surely become so unless the testing is stopped.

Even more important, Rubel thinks a profitable shale industry can never really roll without the 27½% depletion allowance now given to liquid-crude oilmen. At present, shalemen are classified as mineral miners, get only...
...Volkswagen because the British occupation authorities named it to administer the company in 1949. But Lower Saxony has done little to build up Volkswagen, and the federal government expects to knock out this claim with its private ownership bill. The Bundestag is likely to pass the bill this fall, unless Chancellor Konrad Adenauer is upset in September's elections by the Socialists, who favor continued nationalization. But German politicians believe that the very announcement of the stock ownership plan will pick up votes for the Adenauer-Erhard team, help put it back in office to see the plan carried...
