...care much for the Times in Moscow--and that's what counts. Unfortunately, approaches along the lines of the Carter proposal, which the Soviets have already rejected, make up about the only arguments that both hawks and doves in the U.S. can agree upon. Or so says Earl C. Ravenal, a former Defense Department policy-maker, in the September issue of The Atlantic Montly. The 1974 Vladivostock accord, he argues, pleased no one in this country: hawks were convinced the negotiated arms ceilings froze Soviet superiority in place, while doves saw the numbers game the negotiators played as just another...
...course, refute not only the whites' claim of assimilation, but also white fears of Indian exploitation of the land. One woman said, "No one had to worry about conservation until the whites despoiled the land. We've always taken care of our land, and we always will." C. Earl Canderhoop, one Indian resident, dismisses white fears of Indian takeover angrily, says, "Some white people want everything.

What was striking about the Carter proposals was their familiarity. In philosophy, they represent a return to the broad-brush, stockpiling farm-management policies introduced more than four decades ago.

At the end of the day, he returns home to Wife Caron and six-month-old James Earl Carter IV. Trying "to work things out" in their strained marriage, the couple are living for the moment in Rosalynn and Jimmy's ranch house at 1 Woodland Drive. Though the quarters are not up to par with the White House, they top Chip and Caron's last abode...
...headcount of Carters at the White House is going down by one. Second son Chip Carter, 27, is moving out in a trial separation from his wife Caron, who will stay on with the couple's five-month-old son James Earl Carter IV. Chip will return to Plains to work in the family's peanut warehouse. His dad was already vacationing down on the farm. The President angled for catfish, had breakfast with Miss Lillian in her pond house and inspected peanut, corn and watermelon fields. To while away the steamy Georgia afternoon, he invited the army...
