...years, who quit last May. Things "came to a head," Karnow recalls, a day or two before the deadline of the May 24 issue, when President Ford announced that the United States had retaken the freighter Mayaguez after Cambodia had seized it. Karnow then wrote a two-paragraph editorial, that was mildly critical of U.S. policy and said that the military operation was staged "to rescue U.S. honor in wake of the Indochina debacle...

Terse Letter. Last week, Whitlam called on Sir John at his residence, Yarralumla. After the Prime Minister said he would not recommend a general election, Sir John handed him a terse, four-paragraph letter stating: "I hereby determine [withdraw] your appointment as head of government [and] the appointments of all the ministers in your cabinet."

...second part of the campaign seeks to democratize the economy by eliminating the private ownership of large corporations. Although this is economic democracy in the more orthodox socialist sense, the method proposed is rather innovative. The same L.O. convention which called for the abolition of Paragraph 32 also commissioned L.O. economist Rudolf Meidner to do a study of "wage-earners' funds" for the control of corporate profits. Originally, the intent was to get at the profits left behind by L.O.'s solidarity wage policy in high wage firms. What has emerged, however, is a plan for the gradual socialization...
