...last week has been the loudest thunderclap so far in what promises to be an electrifying spectacle of corruption. Karen, a star journalist in our Washington bureau, covered the Democratic Party scandals on the Hill 15 years ago. "So I knew that when you start seeing little signs of trouble???a few admonishments from the ethics committee, a gift or a trip that a Congressman shouldn't have taken?you start looking for a pattern. We were the first to reveal aspects of the crucial role that Ed Buckham (Tom DeLay's former chief of staff and pastor) played hooking...

...different example of the personal trouble???and indeed tragedy?that may be related to the Calhoun bank's liberal lending policies was the apparent suicide of LaBelle Lance's brother, Beverly Banks David, a Jefferson City, Mo., school official. He was found dead on Nov. 24, 1974, in his car; he had started the engine while the garage doors were closed. When his Missouri estate was probated, his solely held assets were valued at $4,177. His wife was astounded to find, however, that the Calhoun National Bank claimed he owed it $254,222. Northwest Georgia Bank in Ringgold lodged...

AMERICA'S families are in trouble???trouble so deep and pervasive as to threaten the future of our nation," declared a major report to last week's White House Conference on Children. "Can the family survive?" asks Anthropologist Margaret Mead rhetorically. "Students in rebellion, the young people living in communes, unmarried couples living together call into question the very meaning and structure of the stable family unit as our society has known it." The family, says California Psychologist Richard Parson, "is now often without function. It is no longer necessarily the basic unit in our society...

...Baltimore riots were even more traumatic for Agnew, who had to call out some 5,700 National Guardsmen and ask for nearly 4,800 federal troops to restore order. Agnew suspected a conspiracy, citing a visit to Baltimore by Stokely Carmichael several days before the trouble???and King's murder?as evidence. Within hours after the shooting stopped, he called 100 moderate Negro leaders into his office and gave them a tongue-lashing for not having counteracted Carmichael's fulminations. "You were intimidated by veiled threats," the Governor told them. "You were stung by insinuations that you were Mr. Charlie...

...rich and prominent have often backfired: Brigitte Bardot made the S.A.O. seem ridiculous by publishing their threatening letter. In France, the S.A.O. has an estimated 7,000 active members, among them about 500 plastiqueurs. This is enough for a limited war of nerves, but not enough to cause serious trouble???at least not yet. Interior Minister Roger Frey, one of De Gaulle's staunchest supporters in the government, has crippled the S.A.O. in France by infiltrating the S.A.O. apparatus, formally outlawing the organization, permitting his police to round up sympathizers as well as S.A.O. members...
