...Eastern Europe to fly to Hanoi with material that they have presumably relayed home and to the West. In recent days, the P.R.G. has stopped picture-taking of troops and street scenes, arresting and later releasing an offending Japanese cameraman, and has reduced its own news flow to a minimum. Only Giai Phong (Liberation), the P.R.G.'s daily newspaper, carries press reports, but they are usually three or four days old and consist of official statements and orders.

...that urban planners, bankers, politicians, and landlords will provide reasonable rents without being forced to do so by the organized power of large, militant tenant groups is a mystery to me. His "balanced analysis" fails to show that the current economic crisis comes down hardest of all on the minimum living standards of poor and working people and only secondarily upon landlords and hapless local governments--while the profits of large banks and corporations are safeguarded at all (social) costs. Such a failure to target corporate profit leads only to a good deal of handwringing about "complexities" and to shallow...
