Kissinger Sets Trend

"When Nixon took office he
solved the first issue with
Henry Kissinger, who seems to
maintain that all the problems
of power can be solved with
power." Mr. Germino said.

"The second issue of poverty
has been poorly confronted
with a policy of benign neglect
and Mr. Nixon's busing role
has been little short of
disgraceful."

Mr. Germino also
emphasized Mr. Nixon's failure
on the last issue. He accused
the President of lacking
theories and fundamentals.

"I would have expected a
conservative party to be
interested in conservation of
social values instead of in
materialism," he speculated.
"Nixon asks for pragmatism
and adjustment, but in a crisis
more basic, humanistic
concepts are needed."
