...Your cover article is a tribute to modern interpretive reporting. The problem of drug abuse will not be solved until more people grasp the complex issues and address the problem with understanding based on scientific and social fact. When the mass media do a superior job of reporting these issues and facts, we are certainly on the road to solution. STANLEY F. YOLLES, M. D. Director National Institute...
This Administration has the atmosphere of the private club. Mitchell in particular seems to exude an attitude impervious to national concerns. The fact that he said school integration would be accomplished seemed to be all he felt necessary. He showed a remarkable nonchalance when some of his attorneys rebelled, and stayed calmly in his bed at San Clemente. Nixon's own style has been that of the corporate man rather than the public official-or at least a version of the corporate man who is insulated and protected from outside scrutiny of his decision-making processes.

An ebullient onetime Harvard Divinity School student from Council Bluffs, Iowa, Brown has been restlessly seeking new ways to marshal a mass antiwar movement ever since he effectively organized campus youths behind McCarthy. He won a fellowship to Harvard's Institute of Politics last year, tried to create a strong anti-ABM movement in Boston, but soon lost interest in both enterprises. The idea for a Moratorium Day came to him last spring after a Massachusetts peace group proposed a drive...
