SUMMER FOCUS (ABC, 10-11 p.m.). "Dissent-or Treason?" examines the moral aspects of protest in the U.S., focusing on the current anti-Viet Nam war demonstrations. Excerpts from speeches by President Johnson and Secretary Rusk, comments from prominent hawks and doves, plus a review of protest in the U.S. by Historian Henry Steele Commager...
...Simple Matter. Early last week Radványi called his office to say that he planned to take a few days off. Next he called "American authorities"-most likely his old friend Dean Rusk-to ask asylum for himself, his wife Julianna and their son János, 15. When his housekeeper, a watchdog assigned by Budapest, returned to the Radványis' house at 2838 Arizona Avenue, N.W., from a shopping trip the following afternoon, the three occupants had disappeared with their possessions and left no forwarding address (they went to a suburban hideout). Forty-five minutes later...
Speeding Aid. As for the claim that Vietnamese hospitals are crowded with burn victims in need of plastic surgery in the U.S., the committee tended to agree with Dr. Howard A.

Jean Rey, the Belgian chief negotiator for the Common Market, called his group "extremely satisfied" with the outcome-a reaction echoed by most governments. Secretary of State Dean Rusk called the results "a fair balance, with some special advantages...
There were two parts to the argument of the article. First, the primary objective is to develop a way to reverse the Vietnam policy represented by President Johnson, Dean Rusk, and Walt Rostow, including, if necessary, the President's defeat in the 1968 election. If the goal were simply "How to Remove LBJ in '68," the title supplied the piece by the New Republic, then Mr. Lardner's jibe about the argument being "internally ridiculous" would be correct, for, if that is one's sole goal, the answer is obvious: vote Republican in 1968. However, things aren't that simple...
