...next 18 months, the probable area of savings-about $2 billion-is not enough to take care of the demands of the cities, of education and of welfare that could easily absorb the anticipated dividend from the end of the Viet Nam war. But to raise taxes in the interim might well impede the growth of the economy, on which the maintenance of prosperity depends, and with it the hope of improving American society.

In the interim, Nixon acquired a gut fighter's reputation that softened only after his forced retirement by defeats for the presidency in 1960 and the California governorship in 1962. Now he enjoys the active support of such diverse Republicans as Barry Goldwater and Jacob Javits, Strom Thurmond and Nelson Rockefeller...
