Johnson Drives Push on New U S Immigration Law
President Johnson takes personal charge to move Kennedy era immigration reform past Congress. The plan would end national origins quotas, replace birth country bias with a first come, first served system favoring skills and relatives in the United States. Feighan’s hearings follow Johnson’s intervention and Eastland’s committee scheduling signals. The measure, once stalled, shows renewed momentum through White House pressure and Senate action.

What Can a Man Do What Can a Man Think
Strictly personal critique of Milton Mayer’s What Can a Man Do with a foreword by Martin Niemoller. The reviewer calls Mayer brilliant and irritating, a pushy pacifist who forces hard questions on war religion and race. A provocative, polarizing work that splits opinions and provokes heated reflection.
