...Hampshire weekend was a preview of the tactics he will use vis-a-vis Johnson. He attacked the implementation of the Administration's Viet Nam policy, but not its broad goals. He promised to spell out later his own "ways and means" of bringing the war "to a quicker conclusion." In Concord, where Nixon gave his first major speech of the campaign, he held L.B.J. to account not only for failure to end the war, but for crime, racial tensions and economic problems as well.

The Planning Board, the Historic Commission, and other like-minded groups believe that the area should be planned in a systematic, coordinated fashion. Other interests--primarily land-hungry businesses, so far--seem to be pressing for a quicker and less lofty disposition of the land. It is obvious that the dump will someday will not be a dump, but the nature, speed, and desirability of the different alternatives are obscure. Likewise the redevelopment of Harvard Square, much discussed in general terms, has so far escaped details...
