Enough Candidates: Morton Sees Strong Republican Field in 1968
Sen. Thruston Morton, former GOP national chairman and Senate campaign chief, says Republicans will field many presidential hopefuls in 1968 after the 1966 elections. He downplays Scranton’s exit and notes Nixon and Romney as leading names, while Rockefeller also has stepped back. Scranton’s vow not to run reshapes party dynamics and leaves Romney seen as possible frontrunner, with Shafer and Truax predicting continued influence from Scranton.

Ten Year Shift in Negro Employment Across Sectors
The Labor Department reports non white workers rose from 5.4 to 7.7 million since 1955, boosting overall share to 10.7 percent by 1974 but remaining concentrated in low skilled blue collar and service jobs.
