Viewed solely from Washington, the Administration's tactics appear to many to be thoroughly inept. Factions within the Executive wrangle too long and too publicly before decisions are made. There has been an inability to gauge congressional sentiment. Unless the Nixon voting rights bill, for example, was designed simply as a gesture to the South, with no serious expectation for replacement of the existing legislation, the Administration was misguided to introduce it in the face of predictable bipartisan opposition. On the other hand, whatever the motive, the Republicans can now say to the South that they tried. Indeed, Nixon...

Is there any field except sectarianism where a great national magazine feels it must avoid a controversial issue...
...that, according to many astronomers, gave birth to the universe more than 10 billion years ago. Just as a cyclist feels more of a breeze when he rides with the wind in his face rather than at his back, the lingering radiation from the so-called "big bang" would appear slightly stronger to an observer on earth when the planet is moving toward the radio waves. Conklin figured that if he could somehow determine the apparent excess of radiation caused by the earth's own motion, he could, in fact, then measure the motion itself...
