Description

The original release sheet reads: FLOODS SWEEP ON Like the irresistible force that it is, the mighty MIssissippi River continues to lay waste to all in its flooding path. Every State along its swollen banks has suffered devastation. Towns below the crest sandbag their defenses and hope for the best. ITALIAN PREMIER AT WHITE HOUSE The nation's Capital welcomes a staunch supporter of United States policy...Italian Premier Aldo Moro. The statesman strolls the grounds of the White House with the Johnsons and is extended the rare honor of attending a Cabinet Meeting. QUEEN CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY Queen Elizabeth is 39. The Royal Family make it a real regal affair as they celebrate the occasion at Windsor Castle. Prince Philip, Princess Anne, Prince Charles, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward all pose for an informal portrait. Oh yes!...the Welsh Corgis is included. IT'S FAIR WEATHER!! The New York World's Fair opens for its second and final season on the optimistic note that it will do better than last year when it ran up a deficit of $17.5 million. Despite the fact that the admission charge has gone up to $2.50 officials expect to attract more than the 27 million who attended the fair last season.
