Still, the American stamp was ev ident wherever the Vice President went. Accompanied by a horde of Secret Service men and military police ("They think I have a machine that spits M.P.s," groused one provost marshal), he cop-tered to the U.S.S. Benewah, flagship of River Flotilla 1 anchored off the Delta, to pass out Purple Hearts and news from home. "Who won the Minne sota-Michigan game?" asked a Minnesota sailor. "We took them 20 to 15," grinned Old Gopher Humphrey. Jetting up to Phu Bai, a small Marine outpost near the embattled DMZ, he boarded a transport plane...
Russians remain at the mercy of the party's pervasive presence-and its caprices. The secret police are still a powerful institution, even if their more brutal techniques have been curbed. In the courts, the regime lately takes more care to keep an outward show of legality, but it easily ignores the law when convenient; the party, after all, is above the law.

...addition to Dow and the CIA, a tempting target for antiwar protesters is Government-sponsored secret research carried out on many university campuses. In response to faculty protests, the University of Pennsylvania recently canceled its contracts with the Defense Department to study chemical and biological warfare. The Universities of Pittsburgh and Minnesota are debating similar action; Stanford and N.Y.U. have applied severe restrictions to such work. Last week there were sit-ins and teach-ins at Michigan, protesting military research at the university. At Princeton, students have been bitterly protesting the use of university land for a government-founded Institute...
