Gaudete, vos feminae antiquae! O vos fortissimae invictaeque-Susania Antony, Elizabetha Cady Stanton, Elizabetha Blackwell, nostra Elizabetha Agassiz-quae pro suffragio, pro dignitate muliebri, pro educatione puellarum et doctrina quae pueris foret aequa fortissime contendistis.

Four more volumes of his speeches are also scheduled for publication...
...most interesting transaction through Swiss banks, however, bears no evidence of illegality. It involved Randolph H. Guthrie, a senior partner of Nixon's former law firm. Guthrie's firm, which represents the Banque de Paris et des Pays-Bas, last fall was instrumental in arranging a $40 million loan for the New York-based conglomerate Liquidonics Industries to gain control of UMC Industries, a St. Louis defense contracting firm. Had the deal been arranged through an American bank, it would have violated SEC margin requirements. Guthrie asserts-and he has not been disputed-that margin requirements...
