News Agencies,
TV Networks Join
for Election
The
major news agencies and television
networks for the first time in history 
pooled their resources Tuesday 
night in n cooperative effort
to compile the vote in a United
States national election.
The service provided the nation
with a fatter and more efficient
delivery of election results from the
GO states and the District of Columbia. 

The service was supplied through
an organization called Network
Election Service NES. It provided
returns in the races for the presidency, 
the Senate, the governorships 
and the Congress.
The national service was a Joint
undertaking of United Press International, 
the Associated Press, the
National Broadcasting Company,
the Columbia Broadcasting System
and the American Broadcasting
Company.
UPI tabulated its own contests
below Congress.
NES is a collection agency set
up to insure the fast and simultaneous 
delivery of the figures, precinct 
by precinct, from Maine to
Hawaii as they become available,
to all five cooperating news disseminators 
and thence to their
newspaper and, broadcast subscribers 
and affiliates.
The cooperating five thus had
the same figures at the same time
to pass on to readers, watchers and
listeners — along with their own interpretations, 
analyses, charts, and
explanations. NES however, supplied 
only the bare figures; telling
what they meant and deciding races
was undertaken individually by each
of the five.
Tabulation centers were set up
in each state and the District of
Columbia. The press associations
handled 12 states each, the broadcast 
networks nine each. A national
tabulation center was set up in a
New York hotel.
The cooperative, or "pool," figures 
were gathered precinct - by precinct 
from most of the nation's
175,000 plus precincts by more than
130,000 reporters. The remaining
territory was covered by about 3.000
county reporters. More than 10,000
persons manned tabulation centers.
In UPI, about 1,500 staff reporters,
writers, editors, tele - printer operators, 
and technicians aided in processing 
and distributing returns.
Another 2.500 special part - time
UPI reporters, gathered votes on
state contests not covered by the
pool.
The pool did not use computers.
The raw returns were distributed
to pool members at headquarters in
each state for use on the local level.
At the same time, returns for president, 
senators, and governors were
transmitted to the New York center 
on private, full circuit open telephone 
lines from each state.

HIGH SCHOOL



TOO LATE
Four
members of the House of Deputies
telegraphed a plea to U. S. Federal 
Judge Thurgood Marshall to
return to the general convention ot
the Protestant Episcopal church
here last week, but they were too
late. Judge Marshall the first Negro 
representing the Diocese of
New York at the triennial gathering, 
had walked out on the conention, 
following that recognizes
the right of persons to disobey segregation 
laws "conflicting with toe
concept of human dignilty under
God." The walkout occurred on
Tuesday, the telegram was dispatched 
on Thursday and the convention 
closed Friday.





Johnson was swept back into the
White House for a four year term
in his own rights by a tidal wave
of votes which smashed Gold
waters' conservative cause everywhere 
but in the Deep South.
His victory with Vice President
elect Hubert Humphrey gave him
the mandate he wanted to try to
unite the American people behind

domestic programs aimed at achiev
ing "the great society" and revitalizing 
the nation's leadership in
world affairs.
It was an election in which time
- honored political rules were overturned. 
The President planted the
Democratic banner in Vermont for
the first time in the state's history
and carried Maine, which hadn't

gone Democratic since 1912 when it
voted for Woodrow Wilson.
Goldwater, on the other hand,
broke the long Democratic monopoly 
in the South and won Mississippi, 
Alabama, Louisiana, South
Carolina and Georgia was an unexpected 
bonus for the GOP candidate. 

But that was about all for the
55-year-old Arizonan, who had said
he was offering a "choice, hot an
echo" and who had pledged to "stop
socialism at home and communism
abroad."
Johnson led from the start as returns 
cae in from states that had
gone Republican before. He jumped

into an early lead in Kansas, which
last voted Democratic in 1936, and
kept widening the margin throughout 
the evening.

INCREASE IN AUTOMATION
Secretary of Labor W. Willard
Wirtz said that increasing automa70,000 
jobs a week in the United
States but eventual full employment 
is dependent upon such increased 
production efficiency. He
said that the last 12 months showed 
the greatest increase in automation 
and technological development 
in our history.
Food output is trailing population
growth.
