...sponsoring part-time unpaid workers in addition to its regular volunteers, VISTA could claim an enormous cache of willing manpower for the OEO's integrated assault on poverty, while generating a spirit of national cooperation in the War on Poverty. (Political activity need not be the only kind of practical public service for adults in and out of college.) In so doing, VISTA would not replace organizations like Philips Brooks, any more than it would replace the Boys' Club or the Salvation Army. Instead it would collaborate with them, and strengthen them. Affiliation with a national program like VISTA would...
...blasted by a U.S. appellate court for having "taken the law into their own hands." Now pending before the U.S. Supreme Court is the case of Dr. Harvey K. Jackson, a Texan who in 1963 was informed by two Internal Revenue agents that his property was being attached for unpaid taxes. Incensed at this violation of what he claimed were his constitutional rights, Dr. Jackson pulled out a pistol and arrested the agents. He was sentenced to 18 months in prison for forcibly impeding federal officers in their duties...
...Russian tanks and guns. Now he was out of ammunition, and with U.S. military aid cut off under the terms of the latest Geneva agreement, he had to rely for supplies on jealous Rightist Phoumi, Deputy Premier in the coalition government.

...most emotional issue involves not money but working conditions. Specifically, the unionists want more free time to escape from the noise, perhaps go to the toilet or relax over a cup of coffee. In most plants, auto workers can leave the production line only for their 30-minute unpaid lunch break and two twelve-minute paid periods during the eight-hour shift. Now the union wants to shut down the assembly lines for at least 15 minutes during each shift-making a total of 39 minutes' released time. Says U.A.W. Vice President Leonard Woodcock, who will conduct most...
...think you should know that our total Oregon expenditure for Lodge was $52,975.63. It should also be realized that the unpaid balance (as of May 18, 1964) is $7,000, as contrasted to a $23,000 deficit in New Hampshire. Considering the fact that Ambassador Lodge ran second in Oregon against a very active candidate, Rockefeller, who had tremendous financial support (a probable $350,000), I do not think Ambassador Lodge did poorly. It is our opinion that a very good man won the Oregon primary...
