...Correct, Compassionate." Roberts and Manchester chiefly differ in describing the interplay between Lyndon Johnson and Kennedy's bereaved intimates during the hours immediately after the murder. The overwhelming impression created by Death's prepublication publicity is that Manchester condemns Johnson for needless cruelty. In the Look serialization, Manchester writes that "aspects of Johnson's behavior in a very understandable state of shock may have proven exacerbating." To this, Roberts replies that Johnson's assumption of power was "careful, correct, considerate and compassionate...
Kerr and Barnes should certainly differ. Meticulous and didactic, Kerr writes a tightly organized review, though lately he has been uncharacteristically diffident and even ambivalent-as if he, too, were rather worried about expressing too firm an opinion of a show.

...political power of various church groups. One cannot even deduce from the existence of abortion laws that a majority of the voters, even a majority of enlightened voters, oppose abortion; and the wise money would probably bet that the things that we shall be forbidding in fifty years will differ substantially from the things we forbid...
