...President and people took their cue from one another; each appeared to turn aside from grave national concerns to private delights of leisure. While it was scarcely the best of all possible worlds that Voltaire's caricature philosopher Pangloss envisioned, Americans were heeding Candide's advice: "We must cultivate our gardens...
...task of lifelong Politician Melvin Laird to preside over the Pentagon at the most critical and criticized era for the U.S. military in many years. He must manage America's withdrawal from Viet Nam in such a way that an unsatisfactory war does not turn into a debacle.

Risky Action. Kaunda's action entails serious risks for his country. Zambia has neither the capital nor the skills to run the mines by itself. Kaunda must rely heavily on both the companies and their remaining 5,000 white miners to keep operations going. Only the steadily rising price of copper, now at a high of 740 per pound, has enabled Zambia to maintain a favorable balance of payments in recent years. Any decline in copper prices as a result of an end of the war in Viet Nam, the discovery of new sources, or the increased...
