Richardson praised as a model reformer risks backfire in image boom
Washington reports that Elliot L. Richardson, two months into leading HEW, is hailed as efficient and potentially presidential material. Associates warn that excessive positive coverage may backfire, as morale and staffing at HEW face ongoing challenges and White House friction persists over appointments. A separate Tokyo note mentions a tea room selling carrot tea and plum pear juice as quick office stimulants.
