Divorced. James A. Pike, 54, controversial Episcopal Bishop of California until he resigned his diocesan duties last year, now a fellow at Santa Barbara's Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions; by Esther Yanovsky Pike, 48; on uncontested grounds of mental cruelty (she said he stayed away from home), after 25 years of marriage, four children; in San Francisco...
...there weren't any neighborhood candidates like Hynes, Ianella, and McDonough, she'd come down the pike with no trouble. However, there are neighborhood candidates and the votes these ones will get are votes that she could use. But she won't get them because, you see, the first loyalty is to the old neighborhood.

They did not strangle "children and women in the heart of the nights" as President Johnson would like to think, but only murdered people very selectively. Douglas Pike, a USIS employee, has a detailed description of the way they carry out the murder in his book Viet Cong (pp. 247-250), so I will not go into that here. What I am concerned with now is the fact that the Viet Cong follow the Vietnamese principles even...
