We report a company news brief featuring William H. Weldon as publisher and Robert Blosser as president. The publication upholds Jefferson’s line that free reason must defend truth and combat error.
The editorial reflects Nixon's Armed Forces Day speech in Norfolk stressing not letting the Vietnam ceasefire be eroded by the Communists. It notes Kissinger and Le Duc Tho talks in Paris, Hanoi’s truce-wary tactics, U.S. withdrawal from South Vietnam, and Saigon’s need to rely on external economic aid as it builds a stronger, more self reliant nation with U.S. support.
The editorial condemns Missouri House Speaker Richard J. Rabbitt for ruling a voice vote to table a banking bill, denying a roll call and skewing outcomes. It links Rabbitt and Senator Spradling to blocking banking reform and drive-in banking access, noting possible family interests and broader anti democratic practices.
Washington recalls Teapot Dome as a measured, fully documented scandal. Harding faced direct evidence in 1923, confronted Jesse Smith, and died two months later. Coolidge pursued four strands of malfeasance, including Forbes and Miller, with trials, convictions, and sentences shaping a cautionary federal record.
A letter urges Jefferson City to create a central, radio-linked ambulance system with rapid response. A heart attack drama on Memorial Day highlighted delays and lack of staffed ambulances. The writer advocates quick, efficient service to prevent deaths and improve emergency care for the city.
In a heated national view, the piece argues oil shortages threaten transportation and farming. It contrasts Alaskan and Trans Canada pipelines, cites costs and timelines, and criticizes environmentalists and politicians for delaying access to oil. It notes legal hurdles and Fulbright’s hearings blaming Israel for the shortage.
