War in Viet Nam Boosts New England Economy

UPI reports defense officials and labor leaders agree the Vietnam War is lifting the six-state New England economy. DSAR cites about a 10 percent rise in regional defense contracts, with over 24,000 contracts under Northeast oversight and funding climbing from roughly 3.5 to 5 billion dollars since last August.

Tourism Boosts Vermont Economy and Patriot Spirit

Vermont officials urge civic pride to aid the summer travel boom projecting 150 million dollars into the state economy this year. Local business staff from gas station attendants to merchants can serve as ambassadors, while tourism-promoting efforts expect 1966 to exceed 1965. Prince Hans Adam of Liechtenstein’s engagement is noted amid broader wartime defense industry impacts in New England with overtime, plant backlogs, and government contracts shaping employment.
