...year campus hostility at Dartmouth reached a peak when a band of students, mainly members of the conservative magazine "The Dartmouth Review," destroyed a shantytown built by pro-divestment students. Critics on both sides of the issue charged McLaughlin with failing to take definitive action and not meting out fair punishments...

The U.S.-E.C. balance, in terms of agriculture, is very positive for the U.S., which means it is not true that Europe is protectionist. The Americans always want more -- not a very fair position. When there is conflict, you must not use gunboat diplomacy. The problem is not Franco- American. It is a European Community-U.S. issue...
