Unwanted Publicity. Last week Kaminsky and Bennett were allowed to fly home. In marked contrast to the Powers case, Washington authorities refused all comment, insisted that the two were bona fide tourists. Though the Northcraft Foundation is not on the list of some 12,000 tax-exempt foundations recognized by the Internal Revenue Service, the State Department blandly insisted that it is an organization giving scholarships to worthy students for foreign travel, referred further queries to the foundation's Philadelphia Lawyer Alex Adelman.

Not content with exhibiting the precision of her indubitably lovely mind, it would seem...

The bill amends the Communications Act to exempt bona fide newscasts and news programs from the provision. The need for an amendment arose last spring, when the FCC issued an interpretation holding that equal time applied not only to campaign speeches but also to news programs...
