When news of the text's dovish stance leaked last June, National Security Adviser Clark wrote fellow Catholics asking them to press the Administration views upon the bishops. The topic doubtless came up when Clark and President Reagan lunched with the Pope's top aide, Agostino Cardinal Casaroli, in Hartford on Aug. 3. On Sept. 13, Weinberger sent Bernardin a carefully worded statement making the same points that Clark made later. In October, retired General Vernon Walters, a State Department troubleshooter, quietly visited Rome to brief Pope John Paul on the Administration's position on nuclear strategy...
...response, the Soviet leadership is all the more determined not to give up any part of what will doubtless be remembered as Brezhnev's most lasting legacy, an unprecedented defense buildup that has, for the first time, put the Soviet Union roughly on a par with the U.S. militarily.

Some Wall Street analysts now guess that the expense of recalling all Tylenol capsules will cause the company to report a loss for the current quarter, but add that...

Although the U.S. denounced the Israeli occupation of West Beirut, the President undercut the force of the protest. Campaigning in New Jersey, Reagan offhandedly commented, "I'm sure what led them to move in was an attack by some leftist militia forces." Says one U.S. foreign policy analyst: "Begin is always watching to see if Reagan will go soft. And he will always choose to believe those Reagan statements over a diplomatic message...
