Private investment, however, will not do away with Government programs, which must continue to expand. In the Model Cities program and the Housing Act of 1968, the Nixon Administration has the tools ? money excepted ? to make real improvement in the lives of millions. Model Cit ies is important because it tackles the slums from all angles, forcing city administrations to plan far more efficiently than they have ever done before. Unfortunately, the program has never been adequately funded. To make it work, Nixon should increase this year's allotment of $625 million to at least a billion, next...

Its thrice-weekly newspaper, the World Tribune, is filled with ardent testimonials of what conversion has meant. Every member is expected to help expand the rolls by the practice of shakubuku*-proselytizing -wherever he goes. Those who can afford it are urged to make one of the chartered-jet pilgrimages to the head temple of Taisekiji in Japan, which more than 10,000 members visit daily...
