The Daily Review presents staff roles with Charles Paterson Leana Ward as managing and associate editors and Mike Mickel as city editor. Dated Monday July 24 1972 the paper states editorials express opinions and column material does not reflect the paper's position.
A guest editorial laments U S indifference to Vietnam veterans noting high unemployment among veterans, high school completion rates, and barriers in GI benefits. It argues veterans are well educated and capable yet face job and education hurdles, urging Americans to value them regardless of war views. Bible thought closes the piece.
An essay argues that national party conventions are ill suited to pick able presidential candidates and draft coherent programs. It proposes abolishing statewide primaries, reforming state conventions with ex officio delegates, and creating smaller national conventions with disciplined delegates to produce a sober national platform.
A skeptical view of the Democratic convention argues the reform rules favor McGovern and minority quotas over merit, portraying the event as a paradox of a “truly representative” gathering that risks fragmenting unity and the Jeffersonian ideal of equal opportunity. It notes polling shows McGovern lagging, while Abernathy and Askew push broader social goals amid debates on race, class, and age quotas.
A letter to the editor accuses Alameda County supervisors of bias and rudeness during a hearing on a Soulin County Ecology Center appeal to halt a 417 to 350 dwelling quarry plan near Castro Valley. The writer cites petitions from Cas tro Valley and neighboring communities and questions the conduct of Supervisors Hannon Cooper and Murphy, praising Hazeto for supporting citizens while noting retirement.
The letter page laments high costs of campaigning and accuses an opponent of misrepresenting statements in a July issue. It insists letters be signed with address, and notes editor rules, with submission to The Daily Review Hayward.
Virginia Payette recalls a March 13, 1971 heats line and urges candidates Nixon Agnew and McGovern to pause and think. The piece critiques campaign rhetoric, calls for reading and reflection, and notes voters must stay alert as November 7 approaches.
Paul Harvey notes both parties aim to end the draft next year while upgrading professional military careers this year. Enlistment incentives rise as draft calls fall, with bonuses doubling to as much as $8,000 and immediate $1,500 loans tempt recruits. The trend shifts toward higher technical capability and a more professional force to fit a future with fewer large standing armies.
