Both sets of events might be looked upon as debits in what one top American official calls the "double-entry bookkeeping" that governs U.S.-Soviet relations. For a balanced view of the true state of American-Russian affairs, both sides of the ledger must be examined. In one column are the credits: the nonproliferation treaty, the new cultural agreement, the Moscow-New York air flights, and the decision to hold disarmament talks.

Bettelheim's positivism at the Orthogenic School contrasts vividly with his tendency to say no in public. In a monthly column for the Ladies' Home Journal called "Dialogue with Mothers," he regularly naysays parents on a variety of topics. Last month he told Mom not to impose her complex political opinions about Viet Nam on young children, who perceive such issues only in simple terms of black and white, right and wrong. Bettelheim has chided U.S. schools for ignoring violence rather than facing up to this human tendency and teaching children how to deal with...

Until then let's make light of it. Have you been keeping up with the Times? It's a lot.
