...launched three years ago last week by the graciously gossipy publisher of Women's Wear Daily and seven other trade publications, W has toiled relentlessly to depict, extol and embody that elusive trait.

Omnipresent threats to her existence necessitate almost unbearable, yet undeniable demands on Israel's governmental budget. Nevertheless, she has remained committed to welcoming the Soviet Jewish immigrants and providing decent care for her citizens. This...
...pity that Mr. Richardson felt compelled to present an argument emergent in a political rhetoric not in tune with the Mideast realities. It is such misrepresentations and distoritions of the U.S. role in the Mideast which demand critical examination and unequivocal rejection. Steve Schwarzberg '76 Coordinator, Harvard U.
