29 September 1960: Latest Draft

This new draft from the working group includes the changes approved by the JPC from the Army amendments of 24 June 1960 and the JPC meeting of 5 July 1960. Notably, however, Section VII remains unchanged despite the decision of the JPC (prompted by the Army amendments) to reduce the section to one paragraph and rewrite it upon further study.
