...that the TIME-Harris poll exposes a huge gulf between the old verities and life as it is actually lived by the American people today. Indeed, from the facts themselves, it is fair to conclude that the poll has captured a detailed portrait of American moral standards in a period of drastic change. That portrait is neither ugly nor entirely flattering, but it does show in bold relief the Janus-like face of a nation that is anxiously establishing new standards of morality while remaining reluctant to abandon completely the values of its forebears...

...standards could be tightened to require more trained help and force other chains to follow the lead of Beverly Enterprises, whose President Christensen announced last week that he will open schools to train nursing-home personnel.

Investors as well as prospective patients need to know which of the chains, behind their sparkling fronts, have developed an ability to earn a profit while meeting exacting standards. Meanwhile, those...
