...craft narrowed, the newly developed 12-lb. color television camera focused on Snoopy during a live transmission 4,120 miles from earth. "This has got to be the greatest sight ever," said a capsule communicator in Houston.

U.S. industrialists who suffer the sting of foreign competition-in textiles, steel, electronics-view Japan as the chief villain. On the other hand, many businessmen look yearningly toward Japan as an enormous market for American goods.
