Underwritten by a grant from TIME, the tour will bring together panels of such leading foreign-affairs experts as Political Scientist Robert Scalapino, Teodoro Moscoso, former coordinator of the Alliance for Progress, and Wayne Fredericks of the Ford Foundation.

Starting this week in Los Angeles, the jet-borne conference will visit San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Houston, Cleveland, Minneapolis, Chicago and Dallas. The meetings are meant for community participation; those who wish to attend should call their local World...
...discussion was urbane and informed but not particularly illuminating. Former CBS Correspondent David Schoenbrun, now a professor of Vietnamese history at Columbia University, conceded that Greene's "emphasis on civilian targets gave a false impression," but called the film "a useful counterpoint to our own propaganda." Robert Scalapino, who teaches political science at Berkeley, observed that the documentary "did not mention the word 'Communism' once," and summed up that it "presented North Viet Nam as the North Vietnamese Communists would like to have...
...behind the move, University of California Political Scientist Robert A. Scalapino, has worried that too many of the dissenters' caricatured criticisms were debasing discussion of the war, and that noisy campus demonstrations were convincing the nation and world of unanimous dissent by U.S. intellectuals.

Berkeley's Robert Scalapino thought that "the Maoists, relying on the bulk of the army, will survive this crisis, though it is extremely doubtful that Maoism will survive for the long-range future...
...REGIME. Seventeen years after its victory over Chiang Kaishek, the Communist regime is solidly entrenched on the mainland. The chance of an internal revolution that would overthrow the Chinese Communists, says Professor Robert Scalapino of the University of California, "seems remote, barring global war or some other major and unforeseeable crisis." Other China experts agree. The Communists have unified the provinces, centralized all authority and imposed a totalitarian administration that has steadily tightened its grip on all phases of government and life. Chairman Mao Tse-tung's chilling philosophy is that "all political power grows out of the barrel...
