Submarines, Quarks and Radiolsotope Dating--Prof. Richard A. Muller, University of California, Berkeley; Jefferson...
...such large-scale woodburning. Huge chippers that swallow entire trees are used for harvesting; since they leave no small limbs to rot and replenish the forest, the practice can amount to mining the thin topsoil.

Various groups, such as the Ad Hoc Committee of Viet Nam Veterans, are organizing to fight harder for better education benefits, job training, health and readjustment programs. Muller, who is executive director of the Council of Viet Nam Veterans and the emerging spokesman for the movement, wants vets in more key Government positions. He notes that "only five of the 700 'policy' posts filled by Carter have gone to Vietvets." There is also growing concern in the Government about veterans' allegations that Agent Orange...
