Timetable for Transition. The economic consequences of peace would depend on the speed of its return. Only recently has the Administration begun a study, headed by Presidential Economic Adviser Herbert Stein, of how the transition should be made. No one expects a difficult conversion, partly because the war has driven a relatively small wedge into the economy.

The fate of the Vietnamese whose lives depend on U.S. protection-well, such human complexities seemed irrelevant. Philosopher Herbert Marcuse brilliantly analyzes flaws in U.S. society, but he prescribes, among other things, a corrective "intolerance" from the left that, some feel, smacks of fascism run by intellectuals.
