...Blumenthal and Energy Secretary James Schlesinger urged the President to take such action. But Vice President Walter Mondale and Presidential Counsel Stuart Eizenstat complained that this would be a blow to low-income families. At the very least, they argued, decontrol should be phased in.

His monumental style, however, is least effective at the very beginning, where a touch more continuity and less mannerism might help the actors introduce themselves and the play's refrains.
