...They are bound to come up on the other side of disaster with a patchwork government that will last until the next one, pointing again to their great miracolo, the economic miracle that the nation's leaders always cite as proof that there is really no cause for concern. The lira is so strong that some rumors speak of an upward revaluation. Gold reserves increased by $383 million in the twelve months ending Oct. 1, the largest increase of any country in the world for that period. The Italians must be doing something right. But they must be doing...
Tactical or Political? Another area of concern is the region around Danang, the country's second-largest city and the hub of I Corps. Three times in six days last week, Communist gunners raked allied base complexes in Danang with rocket and mortar fire. The South Vietnamese 51st Regiment tangled with a North Vietnamese unit twelve miles south of the city and reported killing 253. In Danang itself, a rash of terrorist grenadings resulted in a one-day, 24-hour curfew. Yet the remainder of I Corps, not long ago the main theater of fighting, appears unaffected. Allied intelligence...
...long discussion in SFAC Tuesday was one of the few times that a radical point of view on an issue of concern to the Harvard community was presented and defended in an open forum. We feel that the readers of the CRIMSON were entitled to coverage of the not widely reported arguments about the nature of the involvement of the University--and of ROTC in particular--with American foreign and domestic policies, as well as to a review of the more familiar arguments in defense of ROTC, and of the final vote...

Italy agreed to a 7% budget increase, equal to an extra $140 million; West Germany promised to spend an additional $180 million and to bring its twelve divisions up to strength. The British managed a neat juggling act by announcing a hike in their contribution without any increase in defense spending, accomplished...
Paul is not the only Catholic bishop to be worried by this restlessness and turmoil. A dramatic illustration of the hierarchy's concern-and of some of the reasons for it-took place last week in Washington. At their regular semiannual conference, the 235 Catholic bishops of the U.S. found themselves the target of a bizarre series of demonstrations by dissident priests and laymen. On the day before the bishops met, 3,500 laymen rallied at the Mayflower hotel in support of 41 local priests who had been disciplined by Patrick Cardinal O'Boyle for criticizing Humanae Vitae...
