...their solution are inadmissible. Such measures cannot be tolerated anywhere in society and least of all in an institution dedicated to reason and freedom. The seizure of University Hall was the work not simply of a small group dedicated to the overthrow of society but of a dissident faction of that group. There is no way to insure that such tactics will not be repeated. The task rather is to assure the great mass of the University community that reasoned views with respect to change will receive proper attention...
...differ is on the question of what to do about the occupied territories that Israel shows less and less inclination to relinquish. One faction of the ruling Labor Party, represented by Deputy Premier Yigal Allon, argues for the establishment of paramilitary settlements in the occupied territories. Moshe Dayan favors an interlinked economy to benefit Jew and Arab. A program advocated by Gahal, a right-wing nationalist party led by Cabinet Minister Menahem Begin, is for outright annexation.

How badly the government will be hurt depends, of course, on how swiftly it can capture the assassin and on the discovery of which faction the killer represents. If the killer turns out to be a fellow Luo, the K.P.U. will be unable to use Mboya's death against the government. But if he should be a Kikuyu, Kenya's dominant tribe, Odinga will probably be able to rally Luos to his party...
