...absorbed so much of Nixon's time and attention during the final weeks of the transition period, the process of transferring power continued at a somewhat slower pace than many had expected. The recruitment of officials below the Cabinet, sub-Cabinet and White House staff levels was apparently being done with great deliberation. Of the 300 top posts that Nixon might have filled before taking office, he had by last week named only about 100 appointees.

...defend themselves from this aggression, and to intern the crew members who were, after all, the willing tools of a hostile spying mission against the North Koreans' country. In the light of the crew's activities, I do not think we have a right to complain about "violence" done to them, except that done by their own government. The length of their imprisonment was apparently determined by the Administration's political qualms about acknowledging the facts and apologizing to North Korea before the November elections...
