Critics of the program still maintain, however, that theoreticians cannot adequately train practitioners. This lack of trained planners within the department may create an obstacle if the CRP tries to renew its recognitions, Robert Brown said, cautioning that he is not thoroughly acquainted with Harvard's program. In addition, Kain says he may allow the AIP recognition to expire, both because of a philosophical divergence on educational issues and because the future of that organization is uncertain...

...without the active presence of the army. The army cannot indefinitely remain as the major political power in Ulster. Morale is low, and Britain's will to support it is weakening. Though the British will never unilaterally abandon their political link with the province, they are equally unwilling to maintain direct rule at the cost of an endless army presence. The British are eager to see the army withdrawn--and seeing that delayed, they desire (in a sense) that it be compelled to withdraw. Inevitably the army will withdraw. If a workable political solution is not in effect by then...

This, then, is the dilemma of the British presence in Ulster. In the Protestant communities, any move by the British government to impose and then maintain a dimunition of Protestant power will be opposed, perhaps violently.

...Kirkland JCR, and because the technical devise of having characters who are not immediately involved in the action freeze at the rear or sides of the current scene is used throughout, the stage seems to blend into the audience and the musicians, and it is difficult to maintain focus on the action. Eric Cornwell's and Acha Lord's subdued lighting is effective, although the soft edges and lack of highlights tend to compound the focus problem...

Nonetheless, there is an economic grand design of sorts. It proceeds from the assumption that the economy is in a delicate balance between inflation and unemployment, and so needs gentle treatment. The idea is to feed in just enough stimulus to maintain moderate growth, without accelerating inflation-at the price of a very gradual decline in unemployment. Says one White House adviser: "That's the hardest thing in the world-not to yank the economy around. It doesn't give anybody very clear signals," expansionary or deflationary. It also is not a very inspiring vision for the country...
