When the depressed-areas bill got to the Senate, Democrats invoked the sure-fire election-year argument of aid to the needy at home v. handouts abroad. Presidential Candidate Lyndon Johnson, the bipartisan good shepherd of mutual-security requests over the years, spoke sharply of the Administration's "double standard" in aid giving. Illinois' white-haired Paul Douglas, up for election and therefore sounding oddly like the influential Chicago Tribune, hefted a book of aid-appropriation requests weighing 6 lbs., called for charity at home to match the "billions upon billions of dollars" sent overseas. Candidates Jack Kennedy...
...India, New Delhi Photographer T. S. Satyan and TIME Correspondent James Shepherd had to switch transportation 15 times in four days to reach the Quakers at Barpali. At one point, in the tiny town of Jharsaguda, stranded 100 miles short of their goal, they were rescued by a local TIME
...past eight years, as spiritual shepherd of Methodists in Southern California, Arizona and Hawaii, Bishop Kennedy has proved himself a tireless circuit rider. His 403 churches span 2,500 miles, embrace 225,000 members. He visits them all (he once dropped in on 23 parishes in one month) and averages seven sermons or speeches a week.

AMERICAN EDUCATION : "A kind of state-supported baby-sitting service." SOUTH AFRICA: "The foundation of law has been destroyed...
...young David incurred the wrath of King Saul, he fled to the Wilderness of Judah, a forbidding desert badland just west of the Dead Sea. Later rebels lived for years among its dry stream beds and limestone cliffs, hiding their sacred writings in inaccessible caves. In 1947, a Bedouin shepherd boy crawled into one such cave, found the first of these writings: the famous Dead Sea Scrolls. Since then, Israeli archaeologists have watched in alarm as Bedouins haphazardly ransacked the caves for more fragments of parchment and papyrus, often sneaking across the Jordan border to rifle Israeli caves. Last week...
...aging shepherd of the far-right flank, David Lawrence, commands 282 papers but speaks in such stodgy tones as to be inaudible to readers beguiled by ballistic missiles and revolutionary change. There is Joe Alsop, one of the best descriptive reporters in the business, who attacks any Administration's defense policy with shrill alarums and tends to confuse himself with the prophet Jeremiah; Roscoe Drummond, whose liberal Republican tones are so muted as to be ineffective; and the Times's own fusty senior statesman, Arthur Krock, 73, who in his cumbersome way can still analyze a complicated point...
