...Themes. In the final dervish week it was Humphrey who covered the most territory and made the most political mileage. Traveling in a rented bus, he drove furiously across rolling dairyland and rustic wheat country, punching endlessly at two themes: Agriculture Secretary Ezra Benson's hated farm program, and Jack Kennedy's early support of that program. Local lieutenants of Missouri's Stuart Symington-whose strategy calls for staying out of primaries-publicly threw their support to Humphrey. Mildly anti-Catholic ads were distributed to 350 Wisconsin weeklies (planted by the unofficial Square Deal for Humphrey Committee...
Acrimony & Apathy. Both Case and Morris are running on Case's record. Case stresses that he has endorsed Ike on "the issues that count most in the maintenance of peace-mutual security, sensible defense spending, revision of the Connally Amendment on the World Court, reciprocal trade program, cultural and scientific exchanges." But Morris trumpets that Case has voted against Ike on "measures involving many billions of dollars . . . 'inflationary' housing bills, airport construction, shipping subsidies, excessive pensions, water-pollution control and federal aid to education." Charges a Morris broadside: "Senator Case has a long and consistent record...
...German Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain was 8% per mission. In the age of missilery and megatons, the problem is even more complex-and costly.

China's rulers have long been pushing the establishment of neighborhood mess halls, nurseries and housecleaning services, thus relieving women of "trivial housework'' and freeing them for industry. Thanks to this program, 220,000 ex-housewives in Peking alone are now employed in newly established "street industries"-small workshops or factories operated by 30 or 40 inhabitants of a single city street and capable of turning out light consumer goods or industrial parts. To break down the resistance of women who might...
...limit of fifteen for each of the next five years seems an unrealistic and inflexible policy. No one, not even the architects of the program, knows exactly what course the new discipline will take and what the optimum number of concentrators will prove to be. Social Studies should remain a small field, but a little flexibility would be desirable—and despite the Faculty vote, there is some indication that the fifteen-man limit will be neither inviolable nor of long duration...
