...nothing, press for an overall settlement, or work for smaller measures of amelioration. The first and third alternatives were dismissed. Too much is at stake in a situation that some in Washington compare to the pre-World War I Balkans. At his first press conference, Nixon stressed this grave view. Then the Administration answered the French request for Big Four action by agreeing to explore the question at the United Nations. The idea is that the U.S. would actually join a formal Big Four meeting only if earlier talks showed that results were likely...

...Ellis had to deal with 30 city governments and King County. He readily concedes that it would have been more difficult to act if there had been many more governments to convince of the need for the improvements. Too, the problems in the Seattle area are not as grave as they are in other parts of the country-and there is more land, water, good air and scenery left to save. Yet Forward Thrust's precepts and example can serve many other cities. "We're a pluralistic society," says Ellis. "We certainly ought to be able to find...
