...basis of these chats, Kearns postulates that L.B.J. was torn between his mother and father-with considerable anger and resentment toward both. Johnson's mother was a genteel woman who read Milton and Shakespeare to the young L.B.J. and forced him to take ballet and violin lessons. She saw her husband, a lusty small-time farmer, trader and politician, as a limited, vulgar man, and turned her affection to the young Lyndon in what Kearns calls "an emotional overfeeding that led him to grow up thinking the whole world should accommodate itself to him."

The series of eleven meetings with representatives of various segments of the economy will culminate in a two-day National Conference on Inflation in Washington, B.C., at week's end. Chances of achieving a broad-based consensus for action are dim. The continuing gulf between White House conservatives and their critics (who do not have many imaginative ideas either) was hardly narrowed...
