...partner and campaign manager. Wisconsin Congressman Melvin Laird (Defense) has served Nixon occasionally as an adviser. California Lieutenant Governor Robert Finch (Health, Education and Welfare) is an old friend, campaign aide and confidant. In fact, Finch is matched in the boss's esteem only by William Pierce Rogers, Attorney General in the Eisenhower Administration, whom Nixon selected to become the 55th Secretary of State and Keeper of the Great Seal of the United States. Over the years, Nixon has reserved his friendship for few men. With intimates like Finch, Mitchell and Rogers heading major departments, what in other Administrations...

...purpose of destroying the novel's pretensions to literary or social merit, ten black writers have written criticisms in William Styron's Nat Turner, Ten Black Writers Respond (Beacon Press, $1.95). All of the criticisms are worth reading closely, the most incisive being those by Lerone Bennett, Vincent Harding and Mike Thelwell. The writers are thorough going and competent; among them they do a far more definitive delineation of the book's absurdities and fabrications than I have done here. I recommend them to your attention...
