...marijuana and friendly enemy of mass culture, can be as provocative for the inhibited intellectual as the newest Swedish marriage manual would be for uneasy newlyweds. In his latest venture into "literary anthropology," Fiedler has sought out and identified the spiritual heir of the classic frontiersman, that New World breed who was an Indian at heart. The heir is none other than today's hippie, painting his own sunsets on psychedelic clouds...

Even the left and right wings of Wilson's Labor Party are in the full cry of revolt. Veteran Right Wing M.P. Desmond Donnelly has bucked party discipline, and called for Wilson's resignation. Says Laborite M.P. Reginald Paget: "It really boils down to the fact that Harold Wilson has reached the stage which Lloyd George reached at a certain point-that no one in the world believes a word he says...
