Against such natural splendor, the 370 members of the Havasupai tribe live, or exist, as one of the most impoverished groups in the U.S. The soaring cliffs of the canyon, once a shield against Apache warriors, have become walls of a prison. There are only three ways out: by helicopter (at $120 per hour), on foot or by horseback. The eight-mile pack trip to the lip of the can yon takes three hours, but this is just the first leg. Havasupai in need of sup plies must travel 120 miles to Kingman, Ariz. From there merchants will ship goods...
...institution, and particularly for a University which has so seldom faced such strong internal political pressures. Bureaucratic rigidities long predating Dean Glimp's tenure hamper the task of adjustment; he has played some small role in loosening such rigidities. And if threads of the much-vaunted Harvard community still exist after the turmoil of last April, it is in part due to his continuing efforts at mediation.

I really think that He looks after...
Fortunately, opportunities still exist for a compromise. Nixon himself has speculated that the U.S. might make concessions in its Okinawa policy if the Japanese accepted textile quotas. The U.S. might also be willing to make the quotas fairly liberal, provided that Japan would open its domestic economy more widely. Indeed, if the U.S. settled for mild textile quotas, the Japanese might permit U.S. auto firms to start joint manufacturing ventures in Japan, as Ford and Chrysler are already negotiating to do. Prime Minister Sato is expected to tell Nixon in Washington that the Japanese auto industry will be opened...
