Generation Gap. Barrios can use all the help he can get. During Acción Democrática's ten years in power, it has fissioned three times, in each instance losing some of its younger and more radical supporters and some momentum for reform.

Under last week's decision, those who cannot afford lawyers are now entitled to have one provided for every plea.
