...draw maps. Why should I create a Jewish war before there is any hope whatsoever of peace with the Arabs? What do I mean? There are differences of opinion among this people. When the day comes when we sit with Nasser, and he will say here, and we will say here, and the negotiators representing Israel will think, well, maybe not exactly this, maybe here, maybe there. They will bring it to the Cabinet, and the Cabinet will have to discuss it and take a position. The Cabinet will break up. We will go to the Knesset and have...
...with a signed treaty. But since signed treaties have not always prevented war-why do all countries who have peace treaties with their neighbors still guard their borders?-borders also mean something.

New York's Buddah Records got there first and capped the deal with a $55,000 advance and a $25,-000 bonus. Buddah changed the group's name to the Edwin Hawkins Singers, put the record out-and the world smiled...
...know when to clear tables without disturbing speakers. In his talk, Helms described Ho Chi Minh as "an utterly cold-blooded individual, not at all a kindly uncle," called the Kremlin leadership "morally bankrupt" and claimed that the National Liberation Front had "given up any hope of winning the war on the battlefield." To make sure that he would be first on the wire with the story, Srodes ran off to file before Helms had finished. He tipped a Reuters reporter in a corridor to cover the rest of the speech. Although it was a stroke of luck, Srodes...
