Senators want Ford's safety

Pearson questioned the ability of body guards to protect the President.

"There have been many suggestions, some sensible, some extreme, but we can only make minor adjustments and try to keep the frequency and type of crowd exposure.
"Among our citizenry of kind and friendly Americans, there are some political nuts but the President cannot be cut off from the people and he shouldn't be."
Dole called for a reassessment of security procedures when Ford makes public appearances. He said that assassination attempts on Ford in Sacramento and San Francisco were a serious development of procedures to guard the President from possible threats to his life.

You can do it, too. So far over 550,000 other people have done it. People who have different jobs, different IQs, different interests, different educations have completed the course. Our graduates are people from all walks of life. These people have all taken a course developed by Evelyn Wood, a prominent educator. Practically all of them at least tripled their reading speed with equal or better comprehension. Most have increased it even more.
Think for a moment what that means. All of them—even the slowest—now read an average novel in less than two hours. They read an entire issue of Time or Newsweek in 35 minutes. They don't skip or skim. They read every word. They use no machines. Instead, they let the material they're reading determine how fast they read.
