Paying our taxes with the usual good-natured griping, we felt that as long as the people making much more than we did were paying their share, the tax burden could be borne with a feeling of having done our share, too.

Today, facing furies unimagined and unimaginable in Wilder's heyday, most people cannot share Wilder's optimism. In the 1960s the U.S. has admittedly been spared depressions, cataclysm, poxes, civil war and nuclear devastation-not to mention prevalent permafrost.

Given the circumstances, selective severance or suspension of students involved in the seizure would have to be very arbitrarily distributed. Mass dismissals would deprive the community of many valuable individuals who are deeply committed to the University...
