...Chicago police pointed ominously to such entries in Rubin's diary as a hand-drawn map of the Hilton Hotel area and a reflection that "we really should attend McCarthy rallies and recruit pro-McCarthys for our marches. This lends us the respectability of a pro-establishment group." Big Bob's duplicity did not faze Rubin, who said, when released on $2,500 bail: "Well, at least he was a good bodyguard...
...hours before Humphrey's acceptance speech, McCarthy crossed the street-still lined with troops and cops-to speak to a rally of the disaffected in Grant Park. "I am happy," he said, "to be here to address the government in exile." When he said farewell to a group of cheering campaign workers, he added: "I may be visibly moved.

The six arrested demonstrators, who were charged with "group activities in flagrant violation of public order," face up to three years in labor camps. Litvinov, a physicist, and Mrs. Daniel have a long record of dissent, having protested such other Soviet actions as the literary trial last January at which three intellectuals were...
Priestly Aid. Credit for the terrorist campaign has been claimed by Euzkadi ta Askatasuna (Basque Land and Liberty), an outlawed movement that started in 1953 as a youth group. It has since split with the Basque Nationalist Party, which has worked peacefully for independence since the late 19th century. E.T.A. now campaigns on behalf of what it calls "colonized and oppressed" Basques with nightrider tactics and a Marxist vocabulary. "We have gathered our forces to form a national liberation front," says one of its leaders. "We will not stop until we have achieved the creation of a truly democratic socialist...
