...Nixon's chief political-liaison man, replacing John Sears. Once an associate in Nixon's law firm, Sears is a New Yorker who has some rapport with the party's liberal wing. In the White House, however, Sears found that he had only limited access to Nixon and that two far more powerful aides, H. R. Haldeman and John Ehrlichman, undercut his position. Dent has no such problems. He gets on well with Messrs. H. and E. and sees the President frequently. He is a natural contact man for Southern conservatives who want to get their views...

There is far more freedom of expression and action in Yugoslavia than in any other country of Eastern Europe.
