The piece argues rising food costs threaten economic and social stability, blaming Nixon era policy and a mix of budget deficits, inflation tools, and defense spending. It calls for long term reforms: cut crop subsidies, reduce wage and price controls, curb spending, and use taxation to curb inflation while boosting cities and welfare reform.

James Reston argues Watergate diverts from deep shifts in global power. The United States loses economic clout, European and Japanese strength rise, and Moscow gains in military parity. Nixon must balance foreign gains with domestic crisis as Tanaka visits Washington.
