...leftist groups swing their support to them. Says Francisco Pinto Balsemào, editor of the weekly magazine Expresso and a founder of the Popular Democrats: "The Communists have already imposed their view of socialism on the country through the Revolutionary Council and through nationalization. I'm a nonCommunist, not an antiCommunist. But I'm more inclined to be an anti-Communist as each day passes...
...come at a worse time. The U.S. Congress, in the midst of debating an Administration request for an extra $300 million in military aid for Saigon, was sure to react unfavorably to Thieu's latest attack on the South Vietnamese press; even the anti-Thieu papers are decidedly nonCommunist.

Even so, the prospect of even more government control in an economy that is already 12% nationalized worries many...
...another. Someone has written that 'Russia is not to be grasped with the mind. It is to be believed.' Perhaps Richard Nixon did not become as philosophical as that during this week. But his Russian hosts, after the longest talks they have ever held with any nonCommunist, have more sense of what America is about than any previous Russian rulers...
