Chavez was not the first to try to organize farm workers. Ineffective efforts to found agricultural unions date back to the turn of the century. But only in Hawaii, where Harry Bridges' tough longshoremen's union used its muscle to win the first farm-labor contract for sugar-cane workers in 1945, did unionization take hold. Agriculture is outside the jurisdiction of the National Labor Relations Board, which has provided federal ground rules for industrial workers' unions since 1935; on a national level, there is no similar mechanism for farm workers...
...relative moderation to date of Congressional reaction to campus tumult may, in part, be due to a belated realization that repressive legislation is an inadequate and perhaps even counter-productive response to university problems.

To date, no aid has been cut off under such amendments, although they have been in existence for over a year...

British Journalist-Novelist Leonard Mosley (Hirohito: Emperor of Japan; TIME, July 1, 1966) left his Berlin newspaper beat on Sept. 1, 1939, the day Hitler invaded Poland. At this remote date, he has little new to add by way of fact or interpretation to a subject summed up in his subtitle as "How World War II Began." But he is a first-rate memoirist. His service lies in reconstructing the mesmerized mood of the late 1930s, when Hitler taught those statesmen who tried to reason with him a ghastly object lesson in shattered complacency...
