...Your attempt to present the philosophy of the New Radicals [April 28] is commendable-and an impossibility. There is probably not even one so-called New Leftist who possesses all, or even most, of the beliefs you attribute to them. There are doubtless many members of this amorphous but growing segment of U.S. society, who, for example, have never even heard of Bob Dylan; there are certainly some who never "sing, when in doubt"; and there are many more than you have indicated who have made it to middle age and past...

There are Washington's Governor Daniel Evans, Rhode Island's Governor John Chafee, Massachusetts' Senator Edward Brooke and New York...
...legislature greeted Lurleen's-or George's-speech with joyous Rebel whoops and will doubtless give her whatever she requests, including an expanded state police force. Thus Alabama may well be inviting a confrontation between federal and state authority, comparable to those at Little Rock and Oxford, Miss. The Wallaces, with George's third-party presidential candidacy firmly in mind, clearly would like nothing better...
