Impressions Of Inez On Travel And The Dollar
The piece argues against restricting American travel to the Western Hemisphere to save dollars. It defends broad travel, cites Mexico, South America, Canada, and iconic sites like Niagara Falls and the Panama Canal, and ridicules the idea of sacrificing comforts to protect the dollar. It frames travel as a right and a path to cultural and economic balance.

Washington News Why U S must be wary of Hanoi peace bid talk
Washington correspondent Ray Cromley argues that Ho Chi Minh could gain a major psychological victory by prompting U S talks with an unconditional bombing halt. He warns such a move could boost Communist morale, encourage accommodation with Hanoi, and delay decisive action in Asia. He cites Korean War lessons where U S concessions were seen as defeats, potentially signaling further self-preserving shifts among Asian nations.

Rockefeller Faces Long Odds in Fight for GOP Nomination
Russell Kirk argues Governor Nelson Rockefeller, despite favorable polls, is unlikely to secure the Republican presidential nomination. Primaries in 1969 and 1964 showed his weak grip outside party elites, while Nixon appears poised to win a steady stream of state contests. Rockefeller’s reluctance and South weakness hinder a rally for a 1962 style bid.
