Arkansas' Wilbur Mills is not the kind of Congressman to make the same mistake twice. Earlier this month, when the House of Representatives dealt its Ways and Means Committee chairman-and the Johnson Administration-a humil iating defeat by voting down a routine bill to raise the Federal debt limit, Mills determined to make his own nose count rather than rely on the arithmetic of White House lobbyists.

At the last national meeting in December, almost all the workshops preceding the official session had dealt with issues and problems of campus organization. In April, only one ("Curriculum Reform") concerned the university; the rest dealt with subjects like "Labor Strategy," "Middle-Class Community Organizing" and "Organizing Professions." Only eight delegates showed up for the curriculum workshop and most felt--as at least three stated explicitly--that the university would be "the last...
