...whites, fratricide is just becoming apparent. Black leadership now appears without direction. Whitney Young remains one of the two or three most influential black leaders, but many Negroes feel that he is trying to satisfy all factions. Roy Wilkins, despite the 450,000 membership of the N.A.A.C.P., has lost more ground than any other leader, with the decline of integration as the principal issue and the loss of the N.A.A.C.P.'s traditional adversary role. To be sure, the constituencies of older Negro activists are underestimated, especially in a press that publicizes the shocking more often than quiet accomplishment. "Some...
Identical Attitudes. So far, the Soviets seem to feel that their own purpose is served best by the existence of Asian countries strong enough to resist Chinese influence. If that is the case, the Russian attitude is almost identical with that of the U.S. In the long run, however, the Soviet penetration of Asia may make the problems of peace more difficult to solve. The Russian presence can only add to China's paranoid feelings of encirclement. The time may come when the U.S., either as a counterbalance to Russia or to aid a more moderate and rational post...
Blurred Vision. In the Daily News, Columnist Mike Royko gently needled Mabley's pitch for big money. "I don't want to feel completely left out," Royko wrote.

It is needed, he said, by Roy Ries Jr., a Presbyterian seminarian who had tried to avoid violence by standing with other clergymen between police and demonstrators. Ries, Royko claims, received a fractured skull and still has blurred vision from a rifle-butt blow...
...will not be easy. Tax exemptions and exclusions have seldom been repealed. Instead, in the past 50 years, Congress has opened myriad new tax shelters to accommodate taxpayers who feel aggrieved by somebody else's privilege. An unfortunate result is mind-numbing complexity: the present Revenue Code (1,200 pages) runs longer than War and Peace. Albert Einstein called the federal income tax "the hardest thing in the world to understand." Contemplating his own return, he remarked: "This is too difficult for a mathematician, It takes a philosopher...
...Tilda, a story of a woman chasing her kidnaped son, and We Only Kill Each Other, a biography of Chicago Gangster Bugsy Siegel and his moll Virginia Hill. The roles are hardly calculated to win Academy Awards, but at least they call for more than pouts and poses. "I feel people are trying to bury me in a sea of C cups," she laments. There is little likelihood that she will go under. "Marilyn couldn't fight it because she wasn't strong enough," Raquel theorizes. "But I think I can lick...
