Senseless Clatter. Evans' speech was practically a manifesto for the G.O.P.'s pragmatic "New Breed." It wound up in strange company. On the program preceding the keynote were remarks from two of the most outspoken representatives of an older breed?Barry Goldwater and California's conservative Senator George Murphy. But the man who was to introduce Evans, New York's Mayor John Lindsay, is himself a paradigm of the progressive politicians who have brightened Republican ranks in recent years...
...advent of a left-wing government in Norway," Britain's New Statesman magazine suggested last week.

Overlapping Program. If the Alliance is not identical with the National Liberation Front, the political arm of the Viet Cong, it certainly comes close. The "Save the Country Manifesto" it issued after the Mimot meeting significantly overlaps with the N.L.F.'s long-announced 14 points in demanding the withdrawal of U.S. troops and bases and the creation of an independent, neutral South Viet Nam. Still, nine of its ten leaders have never been identified as Communists or as having had close association with the Viet Cong-although all have neutralist or leftist backgrounds. Chairman Trinh Dinh Thao...
