Task Forces

Along with Education, other task forces
focused on the problems facing American
society. They included task forces on Foreign
Relations, Environment, Race and Minority
Group Relations, Drugs, and Poverty. Other
task forces dealt with Values, Ethics, and
Culture; Legal Rights and Justice; Economy
and Employment and the Draft, National
Service and Alternatives.

Mr. Thomas who appeared on ABC's Issues
and Answers last Sunday, stated that he felt
that the task forces dealt only with problems
affecting minority groups in this country ad not
with the larger problems affecting the whole
country.
