...years ago. Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia have all enjoyed an annual economic growth rate of 8% or more; with the possible exception of Malaysia, these nations have also become more politically stable, while Indonesia, which once threatened to become a Peking satellite, has become aggressively anti-Communist since the overthrow of Sukarno. It may be that the U.S. presence in Viet Nam bought time for these states to put their own affairs in order and become more resistant to subversion because of their greater internal cohesion...

A radical critique by four students charged that History 164b aided the Vietnam war and strengthened support for American foreign policy. The students accused May of reinforcing anti-Communist cold war mystique and substituting "semi-official clap-trap" -the memoirs of Sherman Adams for example-for analysis of U. S. economic motives...

All told, Billy James...
...invasion by "documenting" the existence of an anti-socialist conspiracy last year. The party daily Rudé Právo, for example, last week quoted one speaker at a meeting of regional Communist district chiefs held in May 1968 as warning: "Right-wing opposition forces with varying degrees of anti-Communist and anti-socialist orientation are beginning to emerge on the political scene."
