...violence had been exaggerated?Santa Clara County, including San Jose, voted for Tunney. How much the backfire amounted to was academic, however. Tunney already had established himself as firm on law-and-order by urging pay raises for police and taking an occasional ride in a police cruiser. Tunney's opponent in the Democratic primary, George Brown, represented the Democratic left, thereby giving Tunney an opportunity to portray himself as a moderate even before the general election campaign. Murphy, moreover, was handicapped by a whispery voice, the result of an operation for throat cancer...

Velasco, an army general who seized power in 1968, and had just begun to check inflation and whittle down the budget deficit when the disaster struck, ordered $16 million set aside for relief and reconstruction. A dozen other countries rushed aid-including the U.S., which sent the helicopter carrier Guam, despite Washington's displeasure with Velasco for his seizure of a U.S.-owned oil company. It will take vast sums to repair the effects of a catastrophe that has left...
