Once formidable enough to blast Bonanza from its No. 1 Sunday perch, the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour has recently drifted as low as 47th on the Neilsen charts. Though NBC's front-running Laugh-In continues to get out spoken and risque material past its own censors, the Smothers say that often they are required to snip even the mildest material. On the disputed program, for example, Folk Singer Joan Baez dedicated a song to her husband, a convicted draft resister, with the preface: "He is going to prison for three years.

"At this moment in history," she says, "we have virtually the whole of man's life spread out before us-people who are living as they may have lived for the past 30,000 years and astronauts who are beginning to live as we will live tomorrow. On my first field trips I worked with the comforting knowledge that everything I reported was unique, vanishing, and would be useful for anthropology.

...made clear that he favors similar quotas for textiles. Another threat to free trade comes from home builders and lumbermen, who want the U.S. to curb timber exports to Japan. Partly because of high Japanese demand for U.S. lumber, domestic prices have risen by nearly 100% in the past year, increasing the average cost of a new house...
