...particularly sensitive point with Hanoi's representatives was whether the released prisoners would remain with escorts of the peace delegation all the way back to the U.S. In the first of two previous releases, the prisoners had been met in Laos by State Department representatives, who induced them to board military aircraft for the rest of the trip home, thus cutting them loose from their pacifist escorts. The North Vietnamese felt that this had reduced the propaganda effect of their gesture and were anxious to avoid a recurrence...
Though no formal friendship pact between the U.S. and Rumania was negotiated during President Nixon's visit to Bucharest, Rumanians seemed convinced last week that one had been signed, sealed and delivered.

In an era in which most people accept violence as the way life is, Ginsberg has managed to remain fervently gentle. If he still calls for nothing less than a complete revolution, he also insists that his role within it will be a compassionate and bloodless one. "I'm willing to die for freedom," he told an interviewer recently, "but I'm not willing to kill...
