The piece argues the incumbency party profits from campaign money and media access, hindering public financing proposals despite popular support. It notes high re election rates, two year terms not delivering turnover, and potential White House vetoes. It also critiques Nixon’s stance and connects oil industry profits to public relations needs amid rising prices.
A letter to The Banner argues against mocking dyslexia in a United Mine Workers Journal quote. It explains dyslexia as a language disability, notes famous figures with the condition, and urges teachers and audiences to recognize and remediate it rather than ridicule. The piece cites local community acknowledgments and condolences from Park-McCullough House and Bennington Generals Baseball Club for Ted Ripley.
The Generals urge Bennington Parks and Recreation to name the new Willow Park baseball field Ted Ripley Field in recognition of his contributions to local baseball. The letter also notes a church and personal pleas, with broader commentary on education and language support in Vermont.
A reflective essay recalls a mid thirties view of the Irish rebellion and its modern echoes. It contrasts Irish history with American revolution and criticizes the Provisional IRA while noting violent acts that haunt perspectives on fundraising and activism.
A Washington interview portrait of Jerry Ford portrays him as unremarkable yet candid, cautious about Nixon, and possibly unequal to the presidency. The piece contrasts his open civility with a wary stance toward a veto‑proof Congress and large‑scale reform, noting his conservative voting record.
