Acid & Acrimony. The demonstration began under a crystalline noonday sky at the Lincoln Memorial. It took on special impact by climaxing a week of antiwar protest across the nation. Beneath the marbled gaze of Lincoln's statue, red and blue Viet Cong flags mingled with signs affirming that "Che Guevara Lives," posters proclaiming "Dump Johnson" and asking "Where Is Oswald When We Need Him?" The meeting had hardly begun before three Nazis were arrested for jumping a British trade-union orator who criticized U.S. involvement in Viet...

Rampton has twice intervened in the deadlocked negotiations between Kennecott Copper Corp., the nation's No. 1 producer, and the United Steelworkers union, the impact of the strike is spreading. Some equipment and chemical firms have laid off help, and state welfare officials are paying an estimated $4,000 a day to idled workers, including some strikers. Sales have fallen among railroads and truckers, and banks report a substantial drop in the clearings and debits that reflect the pace of the state's economy...
