That is a truth that moderate and liberal leaders must recognize. Even so, it is equally true that the "underclass"-the blacks, the Mexican Americans and others-have even more reason to feel left out. They too are fed uo, with justice delayed and promises deferred-a fact that Cartoonist John Fischetti expressed in a drawing of an anonymous black imitating the President's "up to here" gesture. Yet viewed rationally, the long-range interests (if not the short-term problems) of the two sides coincide. The slums suffer more from crime and disorder than the suburbs, and blacks...
...reason for the sudden decline in popularity is McGovern's chairmanship of a special commission investigating-and finding-abuses in the selection of convention delegates. Born of the Chicago convention's tumult and disillusionment, the commission was set up by the party leadership as a sop to the liberals.

When Graham returned to New York for his second crusade, he thus had every reason to believe that he would attract more people than ever before...
...either a simian or a Sydney line in one or both palms, as against only 13% of the normals. Victims of genetically determined mongolism are notoriously susceptible to leukemia. Oddly, identical patterns appear in the palms of the mongoloid children and in those of rubella-damaged babies. The reason, according to the Australian researchers, may be that some fetuses are genetically predisposed either to leukemia, or to suffer unusually severe damage from a maternal viral infection. Such damage, they suggest, may manifest itself a few years later as leukemia...
Amantadine's effectiveness seems to be confined to the Asian A-2 strains of influenza virus. Last winter the U.S. Public Health Service, troubled by the drug's side effects, refused to approve its use against the newly emerging Hong Kong strain of A2. The stated reason was that its value had not been proved-though virologists complained at the Manhattan meeting that this was a disingenuous quibble. It could have been predicted, they said, that amantadine would prove as effective against the Hong Kong strain as it was against other...
