...righting the economy without hurting further the very people who are already being hurt. Maybe we're going to have to look elsewhere for leadership." Added Michigan Governor William Milliken, a fellow Republican from Jerry Ford's home state: "There is in my judgment a very urgent need on the part of the Federal Government to recognize some of the very immediate problems we face...
Perhaps the biggest surprise was the selection of Reginald Maudling, 57, as shadow Foreign Secretary to replace Geoffrey Rippon, a Heath loyalist. Maudling had been forced to resign as Home Secretary in 1972 amid accusations of questionable business judgment.* Mrs. Thatcher obviously thought it worth the risk to bring back Maud-ling, a Tory heavyweight who negotiated for Britain's entry into the European Free Trade Area during the late 1950s and who narrowly lost the party leadership to Heath ten years ago.

Fuseli had gone to ? Rome to study painting, and there he was swept away by Michelangelo's Last Judgment. From it most of his work stems: the heroic figures bulging against a flat, gloomy space, the hunched or springing poses, the search for an atmosphere of sublime effort.

Ickes, who attacked Lindbergh for his isolationism, used tactics, such as guilt by association, identical to those of Senator Joseph R. McCarthy in the early 1950's. Cole's comparison is extremely unsound. Lindbergh...
Lane is far from the worst offender. He has proven himself to be a painstaking and careful researcher, posing extremely provocative questions: Why did the FBI tell Harcourt, Brace, and World that it didn't want Rush to Judgment published?. Why did Victor Marchetti, former CIA agent and present investigator of the organization tell a journalist who had covered the Clay Shaw trial in New Orleans that the CIA was very interested in the case because Shaw was a high ranking CIA operative? (Shaw was a New Orleans businessman accused by city District Attorney Jim Garrison of conspiring to assassinate...
