Only Landsmark, the victim, displayed any sense of civic responsibility. He cautioned against retaliatory violence and denied that safety in the streets was an issue. Justifiably, Landsmark did not entirely "turn the other cheek." He criticized White's leadership; and he noted the failure of city officials to deal with racism in Boston. These city officials should continue to be considered failures until Boston is no longer a haven for racism and violence...

A nightly Hulaballoo frug to the overture released tension. They waited for their entrances...
...street long before the phrase was picked up by his Democratic rivals. He combines a skepticism about the Soviet Union with pleas for an old-fashioned patriotism and an end to national self-deprecation. He declares: "We have got to put a stop to constantly turning the other cheek and letting the other side kick us all over the lot." As a counterweight to Russia, he urges improved relations with China; he would open an embassy in Peking and reduce the embassy in Taiwan to a liaison office...
