...much of this was campaign oratory and how much a blueprint for a Nixon Administration remains to be seen. On Viet Nam, Nixon has promised to provide "fresh ideas and new men and new leadership" to end the war. He prides himself on his grasp of foreign policy and is expected to act pretty much as his own Secretary of State- after a thoroughgoing shakedown at Foggy Bottom. According to his staff, he will increase Government spending from the current annual level of $185 billion to $220 billion by the end of his four-year Administration. Defense spending would increase...
...cheer about. An exception was the gubernatorial election in Washington State, where Civil Engineer Daniel Jackson Evans, still in his 30s, bucked the Johnson tide and pulled off a long-shot upset over a two-term Democratic incumbent. Two years later, a flock of Republicans duplicated Dan Evans' blueprint. On Capitol Hill, where they added 47 Congressmen and three Senators, and in the statehouses, where they picked up eight governorships, 1966 was a G.O.P. year...

Fourteen officers, each known as "Policeman Bill," are assigned to the city schools' first, second and third grades, where they tell children about the policeman's job. It all sounds a little cloying. Even so, before one "Policeman Bill's" visit, a survey showed, ghetto children portrayed cops as monsters with whips and flashing silver badges. After he left, they scrawled kindly father figures. To woo teenagers, almost always the troublemakers in ghetto disturbances, the L.A.P.D. has experimentally hired twelve youths for help on such minor...
Asians, says Japan's Foreign Minister Takeo Miki, must work together on "a blueprint for the construction of peace." Behind that message lies the fact that the Viet Nam war-with its massive in flux of U.S. dollars-has had a major economic impact on non-Communist Asia. With peace a distinct, if still distant possibility, the challenge confronting Asians is to gird their war-swollen economies for a more enduring-and healthier-resurgence...
