Good Reasons. The Nixon Administration is anxious to draw China out of its "angry, alienated shell," as Under Secretary of State Elliot Richardson put it recently. The U.S. fully realizes that it cannot effect any lasting solutions in Viet Nam and Southeast Asia without at least some cooperation from China.

On Richardson Bay at Sausalito, houseboaters regularly pollute the waters with garbage and feces. Efforts of developers to commercialize areas of Point Reyes National Seashore in Northern California are only now being resisted, but the conservationists have not won that battle yet. Abalone and kelp fishermen are fast destroying their chief competitors, the sea otters ?who now number only 400 along the entire California coastline. The brown pelican...
