...Angeles, announced that he was supporting the President for reelection. His decision sent shock waves through the already demoralized Democratic Party, since Klein has considerable clout with other Jews. "I used to have trouble finding any supporters when I walked into the Hillcrest Country Club," says Taft Schreiber, executive vice president of show-biz conglomerate MCA and a major Nixon fund raiser. "Now it's like everyone has had a revelation. People come rushing up to me and say: 'I just want to tell you how I'm going to vote...
Some think that salvation lies elsewhere. "The government is set upon either controlling or destroying the press," declares Journalist-Politician Jean-Jacques Servan-Schreiber, general director of the weekly L'Express. Government control of broadcasting, says J.J.-S.S., is "one of the most cancerous traits of French society."

"I don't have the right," he said recently, "to waste my time and the money of my electors by attending the National Assembly." To avoid a wrenching showdown within the party, Servan-Schreiber last week took what...
...Gaullists marginally increased their overall strength, taking 52% of the municipal seats. The Communists won 45 out of France's 193 largest towns-six more than they previously controlled-the most victories for any single party. The divided centrist groups, which Radical Party Politician-Publisher Jean-Jacques Servan-Schreiber had hoped to weld into an alternative to the Gaullists and Communists, lost ground to both...
