...nearly ten points immediately after the tax message was made public. But by the closing bell, almost all the drop had been wiped out, and the loss for the day was a minuscule .29 points. On Friday the industrials went up 1.79 points for another 1967 record and a five-day gain of 22.24 points...

For its part, the Johnson Administration opposed the U.N. session from the outset, correctly anticipating that it would accomplish nothing and that the Communists intended it to be a propaganda spectacular. Once confronted with the inevitability of the session, the U.S. did use the occasion for extensive diplomatic lobbying by Secretary Rusk. He saw many of the foreign officials privately, and even conferred secretly...
