There are liberals who fear that the worst is yet to come, and that South Africa may turn into a dictatorship. Many see, in the closing of Qoboza's World, an implicit threat that the adamantly antigovernment English-language press might be the next target. Certainly, if the government now wants to push through newspaper laws that would place publications directly under government scrutiny, there is nothing to stop...
...Congress and the Administration--a failure "to banish starvation and want for necessities among desperately disadvantaged poor within our Nation." One of the obstacles noted was "division of responsibility and authority within Congress," i.e., whenever responsibility is unclearly divided it is avoided by all parties. What is implicit in the resolution and how it was handled was that the Agriculture Committee, which had legislative and oversight authority for federal food programs, had not done its job.

And quite right too: for little in the history of architecture since the pharaohs quite equals the lofty disregard of human needs-the ordinary instinctive behavior of imperfect people wanting comfort-implicit in so many constructivist/Bauhaus designs...
...Implicit in Letteri's argument is the assumption that if the department spent less money on technology and systems experts, and more on beat patrolmen, there would not be a contract problem.

One bar to P.L.O. participation is Washington's insistence that the organization endorse United Nations Resolution 242, which calls for "secure borders" for all nations in the area-an implicit recognition of Israel's right to exist. The P.L.O. has refused to accept the resolution, since it refers to the Palestinians as refugees rather than as a nation with rights...
