Voters Give Pollsters Hard Time
In this election year pollsters face difficulties measuring voter intent. Johnson leads in most polls with around 60 percent, though figures vary.

McNamara says U S defense budget unchanged by global events
Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara asserts that the Soviet leadership shakeup and China's nuclear test will not force a large increase in next year's budget.

McNamara notes possible counter steps if Soviet force growth appears, and projects a 1966 budget around $50 billion.
