Jackson was hardly fazed by the criticism. Continuing to defend the P.L.O. as "a government in exile," he met Jordan in Chicago, and Jordan said afterward that "we agreed to disagree without being disagreeable." Others on Jackson's side were less cordial. The Rev. Wyatt Tee Walker, a onetime aide to Martin Luther King Jr., charged that Jordan had succumbed to "the plantation syndrome." The Rev. William Augustus Jones, president of the Progessive National Baptist Convention, sneered that the Jordan-Hooks statements proved that the Urban League and N.A.A.C.P. operate under "financial constraints imposed... by their white members...
...embark on negotiations whose success seemed doubtful to many observers from the outset. A breakdown in the tripartite talks, which came perilously close last week, would have involved tremendous risks. Britain would then have been virtually obliged to recognize the cooperative Muzorewa regime, lift sanctions and oversee elections without Patriotic Front participation.

He declared: "In Europe a serious state of military confrontation continues. In the Middle East, in Africa, in the Red Sea area, in southern Asia and in Indochina, ever more perfidious means of aggression and expansion are being used, namely...
...this has yet to make an impact on the Turkish public. Nearly all export earnings go for petroleum and fertilizers, leaving the vast state-owned industries without spare parts. The result: lower production and more unemployment. Says a State Department specialist in Turkish affairs: "We just hope that whatever the next government may be, it will stick to the terms of the IMF deal and not deviate from the international strategy for recovery. Otherwise, Turkey could become a flat-out disaster case...
