...some evidence that Egypt's President Gamal Abdel Nasser is caught between conflicting pressures. On the one hand, he must appease his more zealous army officers, who are impatient for action against Israel, and he may need to demonstrate his independence in the face of Soviet counsels of caution. On the other hand, there are evanescent but tantalizing indications of counterpressures on Nasser from some army officers and middle-class bureaucrats who are weary of Egypt's bearing the main burden of the Arab cause. These men have begun to argue for making a separate peace with Israel...
CONTRARY to the expectations of many, the Nixon Administration has also been urging Congress to exercise caution when dealing with bills relating to campus disruptions. Arguing that college administrators are best qualified to deal with disturbances, Nixon, HEW Secretary Robert Finch, and Commissioner of Education James E. Allen Jr., have all spoken out against measures which would cut off Federal aid to universities hit by disruptions.

Nixon's advisers had proposed that he announce withdrawal of as many as 70,000 troops, but with characteristic caution Nixon chose a minimum opening figure of 25,000 (see box, page 18). The number may nonetheless reach 70,000 by the end of this year. Nixon was careful to speak at Midway of their "replacement" by South Vietnamese forces. Defense Secretary Melvin Laird added to the lexicon by christening the plan "Project Vietnamization." By whatever name, Nixon's move was a guarded gamble for peace in South Viet...
With four-fifths of the country owned by Englishmen or their clients after 1662, a small farmer could not afford even to think about sex. Marriage for him was early death. And he clung to a religion that often tended to confirm his caution. The 18th century priests, trained in the flesh-hating Jansenist seminaries of France, gave him the rationale for what he had to do anyway. It was not a specifically Catholic matter. Protestant churches in Scotland and Wales, countries also under the British thumb, were equally repressive...
