...attack on Gallagher, Balsam and Schaffer makes their strategy clear: crush all signs of militancy before the further aggravations of an insulting contract offer and a drastic reduction in income blow them into strike proportions, while purging the local of its leadership before contract negotations begin. As students depart for the summer, Harvard's anti-labor fist is poised for a decisive blow, and timed to provoke a minimum of public outcry. The solidarity of campus workers is an urgent necessity. This latest assault must be countered with demands for reinstatement of the suspended stewards with full back...
Instead of a system of reverse discrimination, the goal should be to eliminate initial discrimination against blacks and other minorities, which is a departure from the merit criterion.

With hindsight, Rojas points out the fatal errors of disarming the workers and preaching restraint, which together destroyed the only potential check to military insurrection...
Many of the migrants are following the job market as more and more companies depart the cities. Since 1970, employment in all major industries except government has grown at a faster rate in rural counties-which include towns and small cities -than in large urban areas. Again, most of the movement is to the South and West. New York's Fantus Co., which advises corporations seeking to relocate, figures that those regions will account for 55%-60% of the new manufacturing employment over the next year. One reason: more than half of all new plant construction and expansion...
