...None of the 23,000 tons of daily refuse collected in New York City is dumped at sea, nor has it been for about 34 years. Seventeen percent of New York City is the result of sanitary-landfill operations, including Kennedy and LaGuardia airports, the World's Fair site at Flushing Meadow Park, Shea Stadium, Orchard Beach, Canarsie Beach, Marine Park with a 27-hole golf course, and the new United Nations School at the East River...

Nixon confined himself to low-keyed sales pitches, but Attorney General John Mitchell and White House Aides Bryce Harlow, Harry Dent and Clark Mollenhoff adopted hard-knuckle tactics. For weeks, the struggle was a bizarre mixture of moral controversy, party loyalty, political animosity and crude pressure, all played...
