...some respects, the twelve men confined to a New Orleans hotel last week can expect no better treatment than Army recruits. For weeks they will live barrack-style, four to a room, at the Rountowner Motor Inn. A deputy sheriff will guard them even when they sleep. Only in emergencies will they be allowed to talk by phone with their wives-and then only after a sheriff contacts Judge Edward Haggerty for his permission.

There the group reassembled around chains of green-felted tables. The first day the tables were arranged in a horseshoe, which left some members separated by as much as 30 yards. The next day, the conference directors rearranged the setting trying to inject some sense...
