Republican Levin H. Campbell is trying for the second straight time to unseat state Senator Francis X. McCann, and there are compelling reasons for Cambridge voters to prefer the challenger. McCann has shown in 12 years on Beacon Hill that he is a Democratic rubber stamp, responsible for little original thinking and less legislation. His most active effort for any project came four years ago when he sponsored the bill which would have destroyed the Memorial Drive sycamores to build a set of underpasses.

There is very little philosophy per se in this country, and Americans have been left high...
...Your cover story on that nut house called China [Sept. 9] was a splendid piece of political writing. Mao Tse-tung has gone even beyond Stalin, his patron saint and political guru, in villainy. No political leader in history cuts such a ridiculous figure trying to stamp his aging image on the hearts of nearly 800 million people...
