...come. "Whatever issue may come before me as President, if I should be elected-on birth control, divorce, censorship, gambling, or any other subject-I will make my decision in accordance with these views, in accordance with what my conscience tells me to be in the national interest, and without regard to outside religious pressure or dictates.

As curses and the hail of stones grew, Carolina pounded on the hood, leaped aboard, and the driver roared through the mob. The favela-dwellers gave chase, brandishing clubs...
...irritating "Los Angeles type," composed primarily of nitrous oxides and petroleum products loosely known as hydrocarbons, much of it traceable directly to automobile exhausts. Every day in the Los Angeles basin, more than 12,500 tons of pollutants are discharged (80% by autos) into the air-and without the city's severe industrial controls, the daily dosage would be 3,300 tons higher. Its economic and psychological effects are staggering. Smog has cost the Los Angeles area an estimated $375 million in research, control and crop losses. A state-sponsored survey released this month shows that three...
