The Daily Review details its editorial stance with editorials dominating opinion content. Columns curtains letters to the editor and other editorial material do not necessarily reflect the newspaper's position or opinion.
An editorial notes 1975 ends with two troubling events: a fatal La Guardia bombing and Counterspy publishers pledging to continue naming CIA agents abroad. The piece warns such disclosures threaten First Amendment freedoms and may erode civil liberties as fear and security measures rise.
Hayward's HARD considers purchasing 3.6 acres from the Norton Simon Foundation at 315000 dollars, about 90000 per acre, plus a 2.64 acre free addition to total seven acres. The price compares favorably to nearby industrial park rates, but HARD must name any improvements after Norton Simon to qualify. Local agency faces scrutiny as it moves toward a park project amid wider funding struggles.
Herman Sillas, longtime DMV head, proposes bilingual staff in offices with 250 non English visitors yearly. Critics, including advocates for English literacy, warn the policy dilutes language expectations and raises costs tied to the Voting Rights Act. They note rail and railroad funding lessons after massive federal aid.
Morrie Ryskin muses on the turbulent 1975 and uncertain 1976, lamenting the end of the good old days. He condemns Hanoi era policies, praises Ford for opposing Soviet pressure, and notes Vietnam remains a flashpoint amid global upheaval and stalled aid to Angola.
A clipped, satirical Will Rogers monologue questions New Year predictions from wealthy forecasters. He jokes about prosperity forecasts, war costs, and public rights, urging individuals to predict from personal convictions, highlighting the divide between rich predictors and the poor. Selected by Bryan Sterling.
Washington discussants weigh Reagan’s 40 percent New Hampshire showing against Ford’s incumbency, noting small delegate impact, several primaries ahead, and the difficulty of reading significance from one state. Analysts caution that 1976 NH will start the sequence, not decide the race.
A letter from a Hayward resident, husband to Councilwoman Gail Steele, pushes back against a recent piece on city council, arguing that service demands far outweigh pay and perks. He recounts home life disruptions, political pressures, and urges voters to reject frivolous candidates in the upcoming election.
Editor warns Senate Bill 1 and House Bill 2907 threaten constitutional rights. He argues the reform favors criminals, enabling harsher charges for homeowners who shoot intruders. The piece appeals for defending lawful, taxpaying citizens and restoring the country to those who work and study honestly.
A critic condemns a new policy by Pacific Telephone that replaces operator contact with a recorded message advising use of the book. They argue it wastes time when books are unavailable and fear charges for Information calls, claiming the plan shifts costs to users and threatens jobs, urging cheaper, subverted systems.
