They wear blue berets and brandish baseball bats. They profess fear of genocide and want to train their youth for combat. Some have been involved in campus brawls and dustups at political rallies. Last week they ran a $2,790 newspaper ad in New York showing six young men standing before a building with clubs in hand. In an age of Black Panthers, white vigilantes, and apparently millions of armed and angry individuals, there would already seem to be a surfeit of quasi-military partisans. Threat, however, tends to breed counterthreat. Out of the people traditionally identified with the word...
...pressing conclusion is that rash legislative action cutting off funds to entire institutions because of the action of a minority of students would play directly into the hands of those hard-core revolutionaries. Legislation which treats innocent and guilty alike inadvertently confirms extremist charges that "establishment" is repressive ad indifferent to citizen needs and concerns.

People correctly complain that prices are going up faster under Nixon than they did under President Johnson, but the blame belongs to the Johnson Ad ministration. In the mid-1960s, Lyndon Johnson pressed ahead simultaneously with both the Great Society and the Viet Nam escalation, without requesting an increase in taxes. Between 1965 and 1968, federal spending jumped 47%, and the Government put much more money into the economy than it took out. Johnson feared that if he asked for higher taxes, Congress would balk at paying for what some economists now call the "marriage of the warfare...
