Neither Shultz nor Stein plans to become active in the Administration's public relations campaign to sell the program to the nation, and they may decide to quit before long. Shultz, a highly moral man, is also depressed over the Watergate morass. Likewise, former Treasury Secretary John Connally, who urged Nixon to act but apparently felt left out of the inner circle, will quit his vaguely defined Administration...
Argentina's economic morass was not the only reason why General Lanusse decided to restore civilian rule.

Many students ran head-long into the morass of bureaucratic decision-making, which often slowed projects down or made their objectives unattainable. Some students were frustrated by the short-term nature of their projects; having gotten so far, many found they lacked the time to get as far as they would have liked...
